Found somewhat of a remedy for the boost creep!!!!
I just installed the 3ring header/collector silencer that Jeg's sells(sorry can't remember the item #) anyways, I installed it after the resonator in my midpipe, it was a real snyg fit, just hammered it in there.
It makes the car a whole lot quieter, especially at cruising speeds. But here's my boost difference:
Before I had a pattern of 13-13-15....and sometimes higher on the second turbo.
After I have a pattern of 11-10-14....yeah, I know that second turbo is still spinning like mad, but hey, my ECU is tuned for 13psi so 14 isn't that far off.
Anyways, the part was only $50 so it's worth a try, they also make a 2ring design for less retriction. But just remember, RESULTS MAY VARY! It might have an entirely different effect on your setup or you might be more succesful with putting it closer to the engine!
