I run 15 to redline too - pretty wicked eh?
what boost do you see at part throttle around 3-3.5k?
You wanna be carefull around there as your car will want to boost straight to 15, and if you aren't WOT you'll be running way way lean. I held it at around 3500 rpm for a few seconds part throttle and I got mad compressor surge, the car went into convulsions from the various PCM cut-outs, it snap/crackle/popped, etc.. It actually didn't do this until I put my new exhaust on - the combination of quicker spooling and leaning out the AFR had a big effect (and I'm not stage 1). It's definately time for me to upgrade my fuel system (FPR, return line, eManage). then it's hopefully 20 to redline
Part throttle (3-3.5k) boost is around 7psi with no surge. I'm putting the stock airbox back on, it's just too loud and gonna put an HKS Bov on the Mopar one is just one loud pppppppppsssssssssssssssshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh hhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh, I swear it last that long sometimes, it's annoying.

Where was the other source that you tapped into if not the Solenoid 2 hookup.

bigtommy,

I'm running it straight from the nipple in the back of the turbo to my boost controller to the wastegate. I capped the lines coming from the #2 solenoid. I posted a diagram on the post titled VAC lines
