As to recirc or not, if you want to hear your turbo and BOV then recirc. The turbo and BOV will not be as loud with the open dumps screaming. You are right outside Chicago too. If I have time, I may go to the Cars and Coffee meet during the spring. If I do go, you are more than welcome to come and check out my BP kit. I am sure many others are interested in seeing the BP kit too. |

I would put the red and green spring in, yielding about 10psi (chart, right hand side: http://www.tialmedia.com/documents/MVSspc.png). The boost will taper off to about 8psi by redline due to the VVEL, and the tuner can esily adjust timing to make the torque nice and gradual as the boost comes on. The tune will still be very safe, and you should get over the 500whp mark with ease.

If you don't plan on having different boost settings, a good manual boost controller can handle a lot of what you're looking for. You don't get a lot of cool stuff, but they almost never fail and they're very cheap for quality units.

I'm using a TurboXS manual unit, and I'm perfectly happy. Cost me $99 and works like a charm.

Thanks, I wanted to know your point of view so thanks guys, you have confirmed my doubts about open westgates, I'm going to have the recirculated as I previously disscused that with Sasha.
If you have some thougts about what else should I think about with this awsome kit feel free to share. I'm going to choose Apexi avcr boost controller, heard that they do the job perfectly. I imagine that it is a must to limit the boost at first two gears. |

I'm starting to think a good old fashion manual boost controller might be the way to go after all. I'm trying to see if I can find one local today before my tune tomorrow. If not, I may just toss in the 10psi springs as Sasha suggested.
