I also noticed this morning that my peak boost is slightly lower than previous (59kPa compared to 62kPa). Thinking that its either the WG spring are finally breaking in and since the EBC holds a percentage gate it's slightly lower. Or the extra heat is slightly effecting boost levels.
I had the one crack in the filter plate holder which has since been repaired. other then that no problems with kit. I do need to have some touch up done to my tune, i think he may have turned my fans off completely, Ive never had the car up over 225 degrees but even at that point , heat soak robs power.
as far as the rattles, I have the same one, actually made me think I had a rod knock in first few weeks of driving it, that and the clutch noise really made me accept noises as part of the deal. I still am paranoid and would love to find an expert tuner in our area just to tell me everything is good.
I can say I've tested this motor/kit pretty hard and she still purrs like a kitten.

Time for some nitto05rs
