Cruising it seems fine, idle I would say seems hesitant, especially coming to a rolling stop ... and then under boost it doesn't like it when I hit 6 thru 8 PSI ... seems very rough. That and I've read that if the BOV makes a "flutter" sound that you probably have a boost leak. (which I'm guessing is more or less the case) (the BOV is a Greddy - and I've never done any of this before so I'm not sure if it's supposed to make the "flutter" sound or not with the 420A engine)

I have read countless times on many threads that with this setup you should not have to do any type of tuning ... but I didn't know if that's why at the PSI levels from 6 to 8 seemed rough or if I was just having the "boost leak" problem as I've read about.

Any advice is once again appreciated.

Thanks!
