Driving at 70 I get about 6 psi and she pulls allot better on the hills here in Portland nice big grades to check the torque.

Very interesting!! I'm glad someone has installed one of these... The boost numbers are interesting, and I can't wait to see how quick it spools with the pump turned up.
Would you be interested in selling the flanges and the oval cones?

No prob!
The proper stuff is either from the dealer ($20/gallon) or
Zerex G-05. The only place I know of to get the Zerex is at NAPA... Unfortunately you have to order a whole case of six if they don't have it in stock ($10/gallon). That isn't a big deal for me since I have lots of MB's... dunno if it is for you or not.

I would just keep your EGTs a little lower than what the turbo engine can handle and you should be fine. That's My $.02 anyway!
