I saw your videos, so I know the chattering at idle which you're talking about. I bet if you add a light weight flywheel, you'll have a whole conversation under your hood.

No boost gauge yet, I'll have it checked at the dyno
the hose clips loosen off considerably, a cheap 50 pound mecanical gauge will allow super quick boost checks as the vaccum hose is very accessible,

Beedub, anything new regarding boost pressures/dyno runs VT1 vs VT2?

Roffle Waffle, really excited getting your review/thoughts later on! Hope you'll enjoy it as much as Beedub seems to be doing.
