im pretty sure if that you will notice that a boost controller might even slow up spool time. what will make the turbo spool faster is trying a different source of pressure. im am going to try a different source this week when i get some time off of work. i will try to keep all posted.

ok i went to the track and hit 13.7 w/ 1.9 60' on 14" m/t's and 14.2 / 2.3 60' on 15" falkens. im hitting 5th gear with the m/t's, is it too small for my car? i also hit 100 mph with the 15" street tires. i got major traction issues! even with the m/t's im spinning in 2nd and i still need to feather the throttle in first. would some 15" slicks make a difference?

If you advance your Exhaust cam 3 degress, that'll spool your turbine sooner.

I'm not sure if manual boost controllers will help with quicker spool up but electronic bosst controller definatly will. electronic boost controllers keep the wastegate completely 100%closed until set boost is reached so 100% of the exhaust goes through the turbine untill desired boost. with no electronic controller the wasge gate slowly opens as oost in creases until it gets to the desired boost that means as boost increases more and more of the exhaust is bypassing the turbine so you don't always have 100% exhaust flow to turbine it slowly decreases as you get to set boost. this makes the spool up with the electronic boost controller much faster
