I should have some new parts today that I will post up pics of when I get them for the Evo, nothing huge but some needed stuff in my mind to polish off the setup. Still too cold to install them in my non heated garage, but can't wait for it to warm up to start wrenching again!
On another note, this was just posted on Evoxforums.

Twinscroll t4 ETS kit, 6466 turbo, ~1.0AR.
Seriously, this spools identical to mine, faster really, makes almost 700whp on 26psi! This on 35psi would be almost 800whp! I know what I am doing if I upgrade....might have to sell my new gun for this shit!

That's a fucking beast mode powerband, Dave.
What size motor was that on?

Sleeved 2.0L and stock compression, I could be looking at sub 4k spool on my setup. I really really don't want to touch my setup, but this powerband is beast mode for sure, I know of several other people switching to this already now just because of this guys' success. They were having boost holding issues with the twin 38mm wg's as they were the single springs. They are going to try 35psi when they get new springs. No crazy mivec or timing on this either, e85 though.
The guy with this graph is going for the X HP record right now and bringing the car to TX2013 or whatever the texas thing is called.

Amen. You will put yourself in the poor house quick trying to keep up with the Jones'. There's always something newer, better, etc coming out. Just focus on perfecting your setup, touching things that you haven't already touched.
What is different on your car that would allow you to reach the same boost level at less RPM than that one?
Edit: Ah just saw in your sig you are 2.2L.

Yep, 2.2L, from what I have seen the overbore is good for 400-500rpms of spool and making 8-12% more power at the same boost and then even a bit more power at the same boost with bumped compression.
I am not really trying to "keep up" with anyone at all. Just looking at the next step for improving my car. This is a slam dunk if I really want the whole big time turbo setup. But realistically its prolly not going to happen, not this year. Honestly, I just thought it was an AWESOME setup/powerband that got me giddy and wanted to share with everyone. Didn't seem worth making a whole thread for it. I have enough work on my current setup before I move up still.

That twin scroll 6466 looks nice. I wonder if the 1.0 A/R exhaust housing would choke it at all at higher boost levels.
One thing though, even though it is fully spooled at 4000RPMs, it doesn't look like the motor is able able to due much with the air since the HP and TQ at 4000RPMs are nothing crazy even though it's spooled up.
