Just in from a street tuning run. 
I successfully avoided all LEOs in the area yet again. I got some low psi blasts in (2.5ish) and I'm still grinning -- the bitch moves... and to top it off, even only going 1/3 throttle, I can pretty much get boost anytime I want with these housings. I was at 2.5psi before 2800rpm and 1/3ish pedal. I think I'll be hitting 7psi before 3k with the street turbine housings on (which is currently full boost for the street setup).
No big tuning issues -- in fact, I'd bumped it up about 7% to handle any trouble with the humidity and altitude differences -- saw hi 10's on the AFR at one point. My cruising fueling looks dead locked in -- last run it was ~99% accurate, this time, ~101%.
One small hiccup, even with the dual check valves, I'm throwing too much oil in the turbos under load -- Right now, let's just say this:
isn't from tire smoke 
I guess I'm going to have to order some feed restrictors to use in addition to the check valves (and yes, they are in the right way hehe)

Glad you got the wiring figured out. Are you liking your truck again? I finally got good results with my porter cable 7424 for a detail yesterday and today. Think I have finally learned how to use this thing somewhat. Didn't even burn any paint. Let me know when you want to do yours.

Pretty much everything I can do to this truck on my 20 mile commute is now pretty close to zeroed in (so -23 in/hg to atmospheric from 800-4800k rpms). 470 miles on the gear break in...
Saturday = change rear gear oil, change fluids, change plugs, beat the living sh... no, no, sorry, I got excited... drive sedately around my new town smiling at all the flowers.
I have a few pesky problems (like KR AT IDLE UNDER NO LOAD!!!!) and a small group of brits on horses that are hunting for my idle at times, but pretty good progress in the tuning department.
Of course, I leave for Oregon on Monday and will be gone until a week from Sunday. When I get home, my rents will be here for 10 days... Then it will probably be snowing
I blame Grippy for all this!
