Quick teaser, I haven’t drove it yet as I am finishing exhaust. This is open DP. The fitment of Tricks kit was awesome! I am shocked at how well everything went together. It’s just a lot to cram

Ran it today and got the tune pretty close on wastegate. I have a 8psi spring in it and I am seeing 7.8 psi peak so works for me. Gotta hook the boost controller up into the loop now. It runs GREAT! I am very impressed with how it runs at low boost. It’s strong! The lag is minimal, noticeable but not enough I care. I have a couple videos so it can be compared. The tune is weak on timing but you’ll get the idea of spool time on gate pressure. I do a off idle hit, no brake boosting and then start to roll out of it around 4psi.

I gotta hook up the boost control solenoid damnit. I just got it running today, wanted to see what gate pressure was going to be first.

I hope to make it to the track this fall. No Dyno, it’s AWD and there isn’t one anywhere close. I want to run it at the track on 14psi as that’s the last I ran my blower setup. Never got to run it at 18 before I took it off.

Well I am rebuilding my whole VE table and dialing in the boost controller settings. Only at 10psi right now but this thing is a blast to drive. It pulls great for low boost.
