Glad to see you making progress on this! I remember you had been collecting turbo parts at the end of last year..
You using a twin scroll rear housing on that turbo?? I ask because it seems your using a divided manifold since it has a wg tube for both the front and rear banks.
The MC thrust should last, but you still gotta watch how you harsh you bang 1-to-2, especially with that xtreme PP.
I'm also running the same Evolution FW with an Act 6puck/PP and it's a ***** in traffic. Very drivable once you get used to it, but the engagement window is super short and you gotta rev it up quite a bit to be able to slip it in 1st. But the motor does drop/re-rev nicely with it, and the accel response is great if you keep the revs up. An obvious difference from the stock FW.
