reduce lag, get better throttle response. i am not running any more than 5psi when installed. and no more than 10 psi on race gas. i also have a 3psi wastegate "just in-case" the dynamic compression ratio with this setup is nearly the same as 8:1 with 10psi just no lag and better response

nti is awesome if you apply yourself. i am doing great. i just got my ASE Master Certification, and i have an interview with Porsche TAP next thursday. NTI is only going to be as good as you make it. There are a lot of idiots that go to this school also.
