you don't understanding. Its creeping. Not when it fully spools

A turbo isn't going to take 2,000rpms after 20psi to hit 24.

The 20G-LT looks great, but calling it "stock like" based on your logs is simply misleading to those with questions about it.
really according to my logs i am reaching 23 at 3k on my turbo with my tune and i have 91 octane not sure if you are running 93 or not but thats how i am running. I am not sure how to adress you but i guess for what others are calling you mannie great turbo install and it looks nice and i know that it spools like stock it just lasts a lot longer almost as if taper is eliminated very nice write up.

Yea it is creep. But even with the adjusment on my wastegate i could not get it to go away. So i am just going to leave it from where i spike to 23psi and creep to 25psi before it settles back 23psi by redline.

Almost done with the new set-up Manny. I got two or three more things to do. My new wire boots are coming in on Monday, I plan to degree the cams and crank Wednesday or some time when the Tech is avaliable, and have Jester re-tune my mid-range fuel trims and change to his new designed settings, .
I got to add, the Evo is much more fun to drive now. Torque every where down low, and much more top end. I am very happy with the purchase.

After Sunday, you can start your own Large Turbine Turbo thread, . Your are going to like it alot, .

You could always buy the IX turbo and if you're not happy, send it in for $1K and get it upgraded.

I think Buscher and FP will exchange/upgrade your regular IX turbo to the Green for about $1000

The Issue is removing your turbo, mailing it in, and then waiting to get it back. This is simply not an option for daily drivers. I wish they had a post purchase core exchange, like send the OEM unitback after it is exchanged.
