I’m surprised you’re pushing up to 18psi on the oe turbo and still maintaining good egt temps. Where is your egt bung tapped and what are the readings?

I made a mistake when I said that a stock WRX puts down 202WHP off the showroom floor. An 02-05 will put down 170 WHP and a 06 will put down 202 WHP. Sorry for the confusion.
