    Everything looks great! Are you considering moving to a 4 port boost control solenoid?

    Overboosted!!!! I thunk it allowed the turbo to squeeze 34lbs + and lifted his head. Not sure if it was tuner error or install error.

    Sounds like it did the job though. Id say tuner error. With advancements in technology comes new shit to learn. The 4 port would hold boost better than a 3 port. Seems to me like head studs weren't torqued properly.

    I don't think it was either error, just that his head gasket possibly failed and/or he needs to torque his head studs more. Vit had the same problem on his motor and torquing the head studs more and a cosworth head gasket fixed it. The 4 port works in the same was as the 3 port in that if it fails or is turned off, you run right off the wastegate.
