Bret,

You got the Greddy on? Awesome.

You need to loosen the WG a little bit. Turn it so that the ring goes further away from the WG, toward the exhaust housing.

Here's a link to help:

What are you doing tonight or tomorrow? I wanna check it out.

How lean/rich?

When you floor it, and get up in the RPM's, you should try to stay rich. What injectors are you using with that VAFC, and what do you have the settings on right now?

if i am on half throttle its really rich but when i floor it all the way it automatically goes to lean.. don't really matter about the rpms but i am going to mess with it today.. maybe try the vafc hack.. but i don't have the injectors for it.. anyone have any dsm injectors they want to sell me for cheap?.. oh i also am getting a eclipse intercooler.. the small one that will go where no one can see it for 40 dollars!! oh and i ordered my flange for my bov yesterday hopefully i can get that this week maybe next..
