Here are some updates:
I got my car tuned by Daniel of GarageLife at Luck 7 Racing this past weekend. I would like to thank Daniel for the Tune and Fris for letting us use the dyno.
I had a hunch that I'm having sequential issues, my boost pattern was 11-5-8 and sometime I would get 11-8-8, 11-5-5, or 11-8-10-8. I have already replace the CRV and I was hoping I was getting boost cut due to PFC basemap.
Here are the results
Final # at 8PSI due to Stock twin issue. Unfortunately It would not boost past 8psi.<br/>244rwhp.

As of now I am contemplating going Single or 99spec and V-Mount setup.

Don't let this discourage you from the twin turbos. There are some nice 99 spec turbos that come up for sale on the forum. Switch out the turbos and get it tuned again. I am not sure how much power you are looking to get but you can probably get a good 320whp with the 99 specs and stock port engine.

So stay tuned, we'll see what will happen.

As far as spool, I"m on a "mid-sized" turbo with the larger 1.0 housing and see full boost by 3800 rpm if I punch it at 3300. The feeling of the car going from 0 to 17 PSI in 500 rpms is pretty wicked and the single pulls like a freight train across the rest of the rpm range. That combined with the simplicity of the system is well worth the change, at least to me. 320 hp is fun with quick spooling twins, but 400+ with a spool that aggressive will have you smiling and your passengers needing new pants.

The simplicity of the single setup gave me peace of mind I never had when on the twins even when everything was working properly. You are much less likely to have turbo issues as you eliminate a large number of things that can fail and if issues do arise they are extremely easy to pinpoint and all the hardware is extremely easy to access.

Or you can always go non seq twins. I had that on my last FD

I like how you put a lot of emphasis on important parts that most people either completely miss, do last, or halfass (like dual oil coolers and FFE motor mounts).
Are you going to be sticking with the power FC?

YESSIR YESSIR YESSIR YESSIR. In your down time it appears you have made a wise decision.

Here some parts hoarding update lol
18x9.5 +22 gramlights 57DR
57DR side pic
IRPerformance SS oil filler neck
SakeBomb garage ign-1a ignition kit.
I should spending money on fuel and ecu, but I guess I'm splurging on other parts.
Hopefully V-Mount very soon

Wow man.
Looks like you've been planning big in the down time, I'm legit jealous of those gramlights. I'll be getting a Haltech PS1000 ECU and PnP harness as part of a package deal with a bunch of other stuff I'll be picking up in a month if you are interested. If you check out the haltech ecu manager software that runs it, I think you will be impressed. Its a solid setup and its proven.
You'll also be happy with those coils. I think that the IGN-1A coils were one of the best/easiest mods I've done in my entire build. It made everything from cranking and idle to cruise and hard boost run better.
