will i see a difference in whp?

well heres the deal, last time i got to the dyno i put 220whp whit, safc, rb turbo back, walbro 255 fp, running at 11 psi( wideband set at 11.2). now i want to go again to the dyno cause i port the wastegate, put a boost controller and did the t.i.d mod( first time is was without a boost controller), but i first want to know if im gonna see a difference in whp or will it be not much of a gain. also should i lower the wideband or is it ok set at 11.2????

thanks

I dont think ported wastegate is a performance mod, it really is just so you dont boost creep.
I have heard TID upgrades to cone filter or none at all does little for a forced induction, maybe 2 or 3 hp???

The only thing that will make a difference is if you increase ur boost with your controller. Running at 15 PSI you might see a good amount of HP increase. Careful running at those levels with your setup atm. Seems you dont have a upgraded injector your you probally running lean.

oh and another thing bro, last time i did 220whp cause my psi drop from 11 to 5 whe i reached 6300 rpm, if now the ported wastegate can prevent boost from creeping, at 11 psi i should do better than last time.

15 is max for stock turbo. And that drop in psi is not actually due to boost creep. It can be a multitude of things from a big vac leak to loose turbo bolts to bad actuator.
