Thank you stan! I have a star kit, and i have been incredibly stupid with it lately, spiking almost 14 PSI at the track last week. I still ain't blown anything up either. ran an 18.2 on that run too...just kinda coasted down the track. One concern why the star kit might have a slight higer rate of disaster...an external wastegate you can adjust. The other reason, move that stupid FMU to the front. Other than that, it has nothing to do with the star turbo being bigger. All that means is that it can flow a higher max CFM. 10 PSI of boost in the manifold is 10 PSI of boost in the manifold. It doesn't matter what turbo it is coming from, unless it is something incredibly small like a T-25, in which case it might be 300 degrees of 10 PSI. However, with both turbos being a relatively decent sized turbos, and both stage II kits having an intercooler that is rather efficient, there should not be a difference in the 10 PSI of boost. Star's fuel system could use some more work, but all in all, i have ran 10 PSI on race gas, and seen no problems with it leaning out.

99GSBBTurbo...sorry about your luck man...i felt pretty sick to my stomach tonight when i smashed my front end on a dead deer in the middle of route 30. I put like 30 hours into repairing it over the winter after the dude who had it before me hit a ground hog doing 130 mph. Ohh well though, nothing you can do about it.
