There is a reason why the kit is running 7.4psi.
I wasn't too sure if that was all the kit consists of because I'm sorry to be the negative Nelly here, but from my standpoint, this kit is horrible. 7.4psi on a blow-through setup?! These guys are insane! Being around turbo cars my entire life, GOOD INTERCOOLING is one of the key ingredients to a proper turbo setup. That finned pipe has seriously gotta be a joke.

A blow-through setup (ie: no intercooling) coupled with our high compression fa20 has disaster written all over it. @WORKS You're definitely going to have to prove your kit here with proper dyno videos, sheets, and how you're not detonating. I can see one or two power pulls, but this kit I can't seeing living too long upon hard use.

For real though, all this kit needs is an A2W intercooler in place of that goofy fined pipe. I can see this kit being something different but great. Just needs one of these setups:
