Yea I was not able to get the charge pipe done I needed my car back so I ran out of time. I am going to do when I do the AEM computer and move my HKS SSQ Blow off valve up near the intake manifold to give some more eye candy. The dump pipe is stainless steel so it will look good for long time.

So, are you not running any sort of management right now? And what boost are you set at, and what is it creeping to?

From what I remember it started as an AW manifold but they chopped the collector area off to weld on a T4 flange.

About 13psi Dangerous!, I actually heard the detonation that’s when I stopped and did a replay on my Boost gauge. So I have not ragged on it again since then. I should get the waste gate sometime next week. I bought a TIAL anodized blue. If I can keep the boost around 6psi I can at least drive the car hard until I get the AEM in about 3 months or so.

I know another car here is Miami with the same manifold with a TIAL waste gate and no problems. If you remember he did a post here in scion life the one with the AEM that Lance did. I know Lance, he is the one that will be doing my AEM. I went for a ride with Lance in that other car when he was doing some tuning to it. It runs hard I really like the AEM especially the Data logging you see every knock that is in the engine thus keeping you in just the right area of timing, fuel and boost it's definitely the safest route I think.
