stangkilr, Thanks that is what I really wanted to know. Unless you want to sell me your kit, I will be looking into the IPS twins.

clearly all the easter chocolate i had has had an adverse effect on my typing skills

the kit i believe comes with 5lb waste gate springs, better option is to call turbonetics ask them to send out 7 lb springs instead

also call and speak with Reggie at Turbonetics, he was a big help with me!!!

At seven lbs on a Dyno jet with stock exhaust and a custom tune, my LS3 made 576 to the wheels and 598 ftlbs, the turbo spiked to 7.2 i believe.

After some additional tuning the rwhp came up to 598rwhp with a spike of 7.4

that is a lot of power for a dd in my opinion,

Good luck

Lio, if You Get A Boost Controller Like The Aem You Don't Need Different springs. Just Keep The stock Ones Fir Lower Boost setting

the waste gates are great but they come with 5lb springs so to be safe ask them for 7lb spring instead, any extra should be extremely minimal call Reggie at turbonetics

Well what springs for the wastegates does the kit come with ? So if I want to put 8psi I can do it safely without switching springs ? Anyways how can u change the boost in this Kit ?
...
I also got a pair if JBA mid pipes and a CAi air filter to go with my set up ... But I need a lot of help cause im new to turbo stuff
