Yeah they're not on car yet. Coilovers need to come out! (Actually I had a good convo with JIC today)

Looking forward to seeing your coilovers on. I had some FLT2a (I think) on my old LGT and loved em. Maybe a little too harsh for my rump now a days, but not bad none the less.

Have you had any issues with the DP (boost creep)? Have you logged any data with the DP? What do you think about the sound? Any change?

I really like your car man.

FLT-TAR are just the newer top end model, replacing FLT-A2.
Have not data logged with the DP regarding boost creep. The dyno runs I think show it's holding boost pretty consistently(well not spiking and pulling timing anyways), though it wasn't on a load bearing dyno. I have not gotten any feels of power reduction or timing pulled, so I don't think it has spiked more then the 19 psi it's been hitting on target.
Sound wise you hear the turbo a LOT more, exhaust rumble sound, not really.

Thats good. I'm really interested in seeing what your experience with the JIC are. Also what the injectors are doing with your DP in there.

Keep it up, I'm sure Ill see you around here eventually.

Any plans on running a bigger turbo? Your grill is a very nice touch btw.
