FYI, you don't have to go SD just to run a Tial bov, they now make one that recirculates just like the stock setup...its the QR version.
You can also consider the Synapse DV...both are excellent units.

Sorry about that confusion guys, normally we install the actuators in house with appropriate preload but being that these were replacements that obviously couldn't happen lol. We're finding that you may have to remove the nut to get an acceptable amount of preload on the actuator. Please make sure that you have some preload as we're talking a dramatic difference in response!

I may have missed it, but is there even an aftermarket 02 housing on the car? Or is that still stock? I can't believe those numbers (not accusing, just impressed) with all those stock parts and nothing being ported. The lack of supporting mods is just incredible. I can't wait to see you get a nice ETS (shameless plug for a kick butt company) intercooler and pipes. Also, what BOV are you running?

ToxicFab makes really awesome parts, a friend of mine is using his manifold on an EF4, BUT your money would be best spent on a intercooler/piping first. Then porting some of those stock parts. A Rev3 intake and exhaust manifold porting would do wonders for that car.
Maybe after that I'd start looking into some drive train mods.
