Do you or anyone for that matter have any experience with the new boost controlling flashes? I really dont want to install my MBC if I can just have the Computer do it.

A stock Evo is weak on the top end...that's just how it is.

Also is it possible to port a 10.5T to something a lil bigger?

No idea on porting yet...
i think its more like better engine management.. but the 10.5 is a good stepup from my 03 turbo.. as far as porting some do, but if you need bigger, get a bigger turbo.. the new rabbit looks good..just my opion..
