I'm so proud of me!
I finally decided to stop talking about it, and actually order a boost controller. Mind you, I only got a MBC, but still, going from 9psi to 14.5psi. If the 1st gens make 300hp at 9psi, and the 2nd gens make 320hp at 11psi, then the gain for each additional psi is 10hp. The difference between 9psi and 14.5psi is 5.5psi. Using that same logic, I should gain 55hp. Does that sound reasonable? I am also going to get a downpipe, am looking for a good intake, and thinking about trying to gut my pre-cats (I'm not that handy). I need opinions though. I am going to find a boost gauge (probably just AutoGauge or something), but I want at least 2 gauges on my pillar. What other 1 or 2 gauges should I look at? There is an Air/Fuel gauge, just wondering what will give me good information while looking good. A trio of gauges would look pretty spiffy. What kind of gauges do you guys have or know of?

Don't go straight to the 14.5 psi right off the bat. Work your way up and pay close attention to how your turbos behave. The 14.5 on the stock fuel system is good if everything is in tip top working order.

Re: I'm so proud of me!
Well, to start with the obvious, make sure you choose between a 0-20psi and a 0-30psi, based on your future plans. Also make sure your gauge shows boost and vacuum pressure(mine doesn't and it sucks!)
I got my A-pillar pod from www.importpoweronline.com and my gauge at www.summitracing.com (unless I confused the two) The single gauge pod cost me like $25 shipped, it was gaugeworks brand. That is the cheapest I found, they can get more expensive if you go with Autometer or something. I got the plainest black cockpit analog series VDO boost gauge for under $30. Here are the replies people gave me when I asked the same questions awhile back: http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...ht=boost+guage http://www.automotiveforums.com/vbul...d.php?t=249976
