Well, today I decided that the turbo was broken in enough, so I turned the Smarty Jr. to the perf setting (100 hp), engaged 4WD, set my Edge Insight monitor to record 0-60. With foot on brake, boost built up and let 'er loose! Once the monitor told me I had reached 60 mph, I quickly checked the time to see a 0-60 time of 5.45....exactly the same as before the second turbo!!!!! O.K., so what's up??? I've noticed that my boost is 37, and before I had 38.
I'm pretty sure I saw in the installation sheet that the wastegate should be adjusted to reach 42-44, so I may monkey with that a little. I also noticed that even at full boost for 10 seconds, my EGT never got over 1050. I'll report back in a few days with further 0-60's.
