You really shouldn't be on the stock mount.

"T04B turbo" doesn't tell us anything.
It could be as small as an S-trim, which is about the same size as the stock Hitachi HT-18, or as big as an H-trim.
So which is it???

I agree, you should be investing in a FMIC with those mods.

Why do you need a boost controller to get 7-8psi out of a TO4? I'd have though you'd get at least that straight out of the box.
