I am sorry if I missed it Cass, but are you running the internal gates or external?
Also what are the specs on these turbos? They seem like they still have a lot of potential in them from the looks of the graph.
I am assuming you have internal gates which is why you are having boost drop off like that.
Nice job Dave, I am glad you got your car up and running properly Cass, it will be a beast once you take it on the road - hope you have some good rubber! :d

I will PM you the specs on the turbos when I dig out the build sheet - gotta hold a little something back, ya' know...
Good to hear it's finally working Cass.
How was that breath of relief?

Ahh 6lb springs, that would be the problem
Usually you can double the pressure and maintain steady boost. (10lb springs should be good for 20 PSI with EBC).
I am sure the springs will fix that drop off in the top end![Smilie](https://my350z.com/forum/images/smilies/smile.gif)
For reference, I have the 9.8 PSI TiAL Springs and here is my car at 17PSI:
