i cant get over 230 a tank but when i hooked up my boost gauge it would spike to 19.5 or 20 then only drop to 18.5 at full throttle my boost is not dropping like some peoples is that normal

Clarify what your saying here...... Is it carrying 18.5 all the way to redline, or is it dropping off MORE by the time it gets to redline? You mentioned it dropping off to 18.5 at full throttle, but you failed to mentione where your boost ends up at redline -- that is the problem some people are having..... not being able to hold boost throughout the RPM range, not just full throttle.

The less it drops.... the better. I wouldn't complain if that's what your's is doing.... it would just mean that either.... you have a nice healthy turbo, or your boost gauge is off a bit. Hopefully you have a healthy turbo!

As said earlier I'm pretty sure that my earlier mileage claim was bunk - I probably re-filled and didn't re-set the trip.

Re the question reguarding the boost restrictor - it's the small brass fitting inside the vaccum line that connects to the boost selenoid.

Sorry I haven't posted any new info lately; I bent my Evo and it's been in the stop for the last two weeks - tough to read EvoM when my Evo's bent. Everything should be fine, though, and I'll have pics and a review of the body work and shop once I get the car back. So far they have been great.

EVO Rosso and Tom - either of you have your cam gears in yet? Mine came last week.
