Running real boost like that, I'd get a tial. (personal preference)

Run it close to the TB.

But if you are trying to keep pressure from back feeding through the turbo, wouldn't you want the pressure relief on the turbo side of the intercooler?

I had tightened the BOV spring to help with the stalling issues it had before I got the maft pro, I tried to loosen it up today and it did seem to help, but now it's leaking boost at about 16psi. I think I'm going to break down and pick up a big 50mm BOV of some sort. The Tial looks like it would work nice.

Sounds really good! I honestly thought the external wastegate was responsible for the way it sounded.

It is, but what whey are talking about as the chirping type sound it was making when the bov opens.....er.....doesn't open enough. I have a 50mm Tial copy on the way to me next week.
