the fact that i have those IC misters on there also i think it'll do just fine
on pois car he said after a good amount of stop and go freewaydriving it never went above ambient .. so w/ some IC misters i'll do what i can to keep it there or below haha

well went for a drive and almost got a ticket as i was going ~70 on the on ramp(saw cop and let off) but yea i say+++ upgrade i'm sure it would be worlds better if i could floor it and get full boost but because of my setup 1/2 throttle 10psi it feels really good. even fixed a little glitch my car had, it would go up to around 8psi really quick and then lag a little and keep boosting .. this thing is just nice and smoooooooth on building boost
so yea as soon as i can afford a day @ the track this thing better be 13's

another tbricker got a used one for $102 and it had 2.5" inlet/outlets welded on it
i used to see them for $150 buy it now w/ plastic wrapper and ford sticker on them, $250 for IC w/ hard pipe and rubber pipes ...
makes you amazed i paid that much for this one when there was cheaper out there haha
