Good to hear it's coming along man. I had clearance issues with prls front pipe also, I ended up switching to maperformance front pipe along with their cat back.
Im to fucking stuborn lol Im 100% a Polack so theres no way im giving up lol. Just like the defouler it just took a while. I think I basically got it under control after bending the heatshield.

My other reason for switching was their front pipe connects with their exhaust via vband so a smoother transition.

Are you sure.. I dont know reading the fact that it stays more consistent and higher up on psi is very intriguing.
There have been multiple issues reported with aftermarket BOVs, even the recerc ones, getting stuck wide open or closed.

The oem has shown to support 40psi.

A good quality tune will give you that steady boost you seek.

I am but I have to change my o2 sensor Friday and clean the maf sensor. Then once that’s done I can goto a dyno and get some pulls measured.
Is this recommended to do after the turbo install or something ?

Im tuned by drob. I was just looking for the whoosh sound to be more pronounced and the psi to not fluctuate so much. My final tune hits max psi of about 27

27 is pretty solid. What kind of drops are you seeing.

No it’s just that I push the car hard so everything wears out quicker. Had to replace plugs at 40k miles, already rebuilt the trans once, did the clutch 3 times, went through 2 aftermarket turbo installs... my af ratio kept jumping so I cleaned the maf sensor and replaced the o2 and I have new plugs coming in next week. But the cars pulling hard.

I dont know as it raises in value it kinda flutters around I dont know if thats normal its my first turbo car. It doesnt raise or lower significantly its just not super steady.

I have the torque solution adaptor with the stock bov and no issues and sounds bad ass.

Bov adaptor
I wonder if anyone can chime in on this as well because I am interested.
Did you notice better or more constant boost ?

the sound is exactly what I'm looking for with my full bolt ons and exhaust I'm sure are going to sound amazing.
