J/K ....It's great that they're releasing the Stage 1.5 kit. Realistically, for the price increase, it's probably no more than I payed for an EU and 440's (and I don't believe anyone on stock internals needs the capacity that drop-in 550CC injectors would offer). With the AAM fuel system, the boost controller and the installation fees (and the rock solid tune), I don't believe I paid more than the St. 1.5 kit would cost with these same extras...This St. 1.5 kit just makes the kit better for the community, which is exactly what I would expect from a company like Turbonetics...continued bettering of products and product offerings based on customer experience and market demand. Good for them...and GO TURBONETICS!!!

Does this post count as post-whoring? Be careful how you answer. J/K again.

When I first became a mod on Ephatch there was a huge jump in my amount of posting exactly for the reason that you stated... Keeping things in line and order.
And no on this as post whoring , I actually pretty much consider anything more than one sentance to be a reasonable post (even if we go a little off topic like this LOL).
It is the "one liners" or less that gets on my nerves LOL (meaning folks who make consistant "one liner" posts to raise their counts).

Had dinner with JET tonight....not sure if he brought a computer with him from FL, so I figured I'd try to update everyone. They tried a 38MM Tial gate on his car today, with some results, but it's still experiencing boost creep, which is a clear indicator that the exhaust velocity and entry angle into the gate are an issue (at least they are to me).
JET,
Nice to meet you in person finally. I'm sure you have more information than I provided.

I know some of you already know, but my car is running fine with the SBC-ID3 boost controller in. I'm able to regulate boost with no problems whatsoever. I'm also hitting 8.5psi at around roughly 3k rpms. Before, I was hitting about 9-9.5psi with my Fujitsubo exhaust.
I was considering installing my old Pro-1 exhaust to see how well it worked, but I'm busy with the holidays and too damn lazy to jack my car up (it's a ***** with the body kit on).

Interesting. Did that huge motha TurboSmart WG not fit?
When you say "entry angle into the gate" are you actually referring to the 90 degree wastegate angle or the angle that the dump pipe joins the down pipe ?
When do you think you will be trying the next test?
