    Anyone know if it would be wise to replace the cat with a test pipe? Less backpressure= more power?

    Yes, the bigger the pressure differential across the tubine side of the turbo the better.

    Airesearch m27/ Garrett T3. 10psi for the time being, the wastegate will only hold 12 psi.

    Nice Work! :D

    Being a Diesel Head I'm not familar with that turbo, Is there a comprssor Map for it?

    I know of a very easy low cost fix for the wastegate when and if you decide you need more boost:headbang:

    Also are you going with a thicker head gasket to lower compression any?

    Im not too sure about the compressor map. But yeh, im going with a 1.5mm Cometic HG and ARP headstuds.... if they show up sometime, ordered 2 weeks ago and they have yet to show.

    Anyway UPDATE!:

    Wired in new injector clips, fabbed my test pipe with downpipe and BOV adapter, tapped my oil feed line.
