I havent even driven it yet! I think i will this weekend! I started it in my garage and let it warm up, then i started to throttle it a little, then more and more! I kinda don't like the open wastegate! The loud popping sound it makes is kinda annoying! I love the sound of the turbo though!

Surely you realize that you can drive an untuned turbo setup just fine. He didn't say he ran an 11.4 with it, he simply told us that he successfully started it in his garage. Tuning comes after the mechanical bugs have been worked out.

As for the wastegate, get that bastard plumbed into your exhaust if you don't like the noise: that way it's legal too (at least moreso).

As for the wastegate upgrade to a tial or be stuck with the shitty Deltagate creep/spike issue. Also dont route it back into the exhaust. You want to free up as much power as possible.

So far none! I am actually running a skunk 2 p28 ecu right now! I have the timing manually retarded about 6 degrees! The car won't be beat on until i have some hondata, Or uberdata??? I like the idea of hondata, but i like the price of uberdata if you know what i mean!
