With a wide open exhaust I see full boost about 500rpm later than stock. Its honestly such a small difference I barely even noticed.

Well my problem with only boosting to about 3 or 4 is now almost eliminated. I disconnected the twin scrool actuator and now it boosts to about 5 to 7 but I haven't ran it that hard yet ( on interstate ) My question is to all you guys without twin scroll, when do ya'll see full boost? Thanks!

I thought you were running the S5 TURBO? or a hybrid of some sort?

it's a hybrid turbo (upgraded compressor wheel). I am getting, like I said, 5 to 7 psi just haven't seen anything above that. I'm going to get a boost controller on ebay and put some new fart can mufflers on, for now, lack of money and I have to replace a sylicone hose that keeps breaking under preasure. But after that it looks like just a few cosmetic things and the car is finally at least streetable.
