This hole is 1.1mm

I would suggest making one as it will cost you 10X more to freight it from Australia to you.

And this does smooth out the boost flow.

i say just throw the APS crap in the trash and put a real boost controller on it, if you want it to work right.

my second thoughts exactly... however, doesn't the unichip work in conjunction with the boost controller? unless there is an authorized unichip tuner, isn't it safe just to use the APS bc with the unichip?

yeah the unichip controls the boost controller, but if it isnt hooked up, the solenoid blows off boost allowing you to only make 5psi, thats why i said to ditch it, install an avcr or some other ebc.

Get an EBC. Well worth it in the long run.
