Thanks for all the compliments guys!!

Not exactly like butter, but in the capable hands of my tuning guy things did go fairly smoothly once I got some small issues worked out. The EMS is simply amazing though. The things it can do with just a few keystrokes really blew my mind today. Imagine a scenario where not only do you have the ability to view just about every peramater occuring in your engine at any given time, but also have the ability to go in, pinpoint, and fix that specific problem. With a few keystrokes. The EMS is amazing man.

93 octane pump gas, with the methanol starting to spray at 8 psi and ramping up to full pressure at 20 psi. I'm not really sure how far this turbo can go, but it seems to be easially making good power so far.

At 19 psi, timing is:5500- 18.56000- 18.96500- 19.6
To be fair, I rounded down with the 4500, 19 psi timing: its at exactly 15.8 degrees.

Read above for what I said about the EMS. As far as difficulty it is a fairly complicated system, but that sorta comes with the territory when you want a single unit to pretty much be able to control everything. I had a experienced, certified AEM tech to help me with the tuning.

To be honest Im not entirely sure how far this turbo can go. I have mapped the compresser out a bunch of times and I should be in pretty good efficiency for quite some time. Honestly though I'm not exactly sure where it would start becoming too inefficient... gotta kinda feel it out, and I'm saving that for down the road.
