with my stock manifold it took me 25psi to squezze 356 or w/e my previous numbers were, now with the ported megan it flows so much more and my injectors could not keep up with that much air, IE: more air means you need more fuel:..........so i had to keep lowering the boost level so my stock injectors werent maxing out over 100%......so now the motor or manifold isnt struggling at all to produce power, but thats the maximun my injectors would flow.
so end conclusion the most boost i could get out of it without changing injectors was 20.5 psi
the manifold took away 40ft lbs of tourqe and 30whp down low
and added 9whp at 5500 rpm to redine
it feels like a really big turbo is in the car, it feels like realy bad turbo lag, but you can deffinetly feel the power up top, its not bad because when i shift the rpms are above 5500 rpms anyway, but getting to 5500 is like having a 42r in the car
and thats at the last possible position before knock. so the car is set at where it is right now until i do injectors and probably a fuel rail to keep up with the so much more air flow being produced by the ported manifold.

I'd look into your fuel pump, it may be clogged..There is no way a stock turbo evo 9 should max out the injectors with only intake and exhaust especially at such low boost..Do you have any datalogs??
