Not yet I have been running the wrong sized turbo (T-60-1) for the SS as it was the first SS to have the kit and it was really a test bed. I am upgrading the turbo this week to the GT67 and all should be well, Soon I hope to have some track times and a dyno run. Hang tight we will get some posted soon

STS is working on the CARB certification right now so if we get lucky we will be "smog legal".
The 13psi was fine and had been run many times like that but it didn't like being launched in 4wh hi. We are changing some things to make it work better as well as trying out the bigger turbo. Either way I am still very happy with the kit.

I think CARB certification takes quite a while - the kit has to be in production status, and it costs somewhere in the neighborhood of $100,000 or more to get the cert. I bet it will be a while yet.
