Small update, car progress is almost nil. As I have been unemployed for a bit over a month now I have not been able to spend any money on the car. However, my brother being a legend got me a EBC for my Birthday last month and last weekend Rudi being of similar legendhood gave me a hand wiring it in... in that he did all the wiring.
Results:
Turbosmart E-Boost Street 40PSI
Boost now comes on earlier, around 2600rpm, which is around 3-400 rpm earlier then before, it also comes on harder and I have dialed in a couple more PSI as it holds it better.
However... because I can only street tune it I cant dial in boost correction, so its actually set to 14psi and fairly quickly drops down to about 12psi. If I set the duty cycle higher for more boost it hits cut, and its it hard and fast. Solution? Dyno tune it and get some boost correction in! Its so easy to do but I need precise numbers so not going to try on the street... yet. Should get a quick SAFC re-tune anyways if I'm dialing in 4psi more I suppose, but its all stuff I cant afford!
Rough tune aside, its gotten the results I've wanted so far (more response), so for now it'll do. Should last the life of the car as well... don't see myself ever going higher then 40PSI!
Next up... sort out clicking noise coming from front right brake at some low speed maneuvering...
