Nice build and I'm glad you ditched that POS forge BOV. I had the same one and it leaked like a ****. Back to running the OEM IX valve, but with the 30+ psi you're running I think the tail is a good choice.

I like the s3 idea... you're going to need everything to help with spool.

how do you like the BC280 cams? I was thinking about going with the BC272's but I'm just unsure. I have a evo 9 and would hate to snap a cam in half.

i havent gotten the car to where i can tell if i like them i have always ran BC products in my dsm's but there are alot of hype on the evos w/ gsc cams... so we will see if it will yeild a be enough advantage to swap them out...

currently getting tune via email tunes and its going quite nicely did a wot pull last weekend at 20 psi and look forward to bumping up the timing and boost to see what this thing can put down this summer!!

update.. still tuning ran into some issues

stock coils didnt seem to keep up
and the single spring wastegates didnt wanna hold any boost..



sooo installing spoolinup cop tonight and adding some small blue helper springs for the wastegates (bump it to 21.7 psi) to hold the boost a lil better



then back to the grind
