Trust Oil Cooler/Relocation kit installed. What a bitch of a job with Japanese instructions. HUGE thanks to Jason and Greg for there immense help on this. This kit does its job very well.

"Bitch" doesn't quite describe that install. That goes down as one of those "it took a lot longer than we thought" installs. Glad to hear it's working well though. It is definitely one of the cleaner looking installs. It is a lot of work to install, but it does look good once you get it in.
I have a catch can that's forsale to the highest bidder
After much consideration, I have finally pulled the boost restrictor. Fuel milage has be the biggest reason I haven't done this, but now I don't have to drive as far to work.
Big difference in the mid-range to top-end Hp. The exhaust note has changed a bit when I really get on the pedal and turbo spool is way more noticable. 8)
Nice work on your build
Where is the boost restrictor? I have heard about it, but I don't know where it is....
The line running into the boost solinoid from the direction of the engine. It a has a yellow stripe around the area where the restrictor is. You should be able to feel it by pinching the line. Pop this line off at the solinoid and either use a tiny screwdriver or pick to fish it out while squeezing behind the restrictor like a tube of tooth paste. The other easier way if you have enough line is to cut right behind the restrictor.

I can't believe what those new tires are doing for you. Noticeably less under steer on the front end, and you can see your punching the power on far earlier, and rotating the car sharper and smoother.
Just finished doing a complete A/C and HICAS delete.
Also got myself some HKS GT2510's, Dump Pipes and a Nismo front pipe. Now I will have a complete Stainless Steel turbo back exhaust. Don't have these in yet. Waiting for some gaskets and getting the castings cut out of my exhaust manifolds.
Currently negotiating for some new R-compound tires. Won't say what kind. It will be a surprise.:biggrin:

After going over this thread, I realize that I never mentioned that I have Adjustable rear upper links and I turfed the EMU in favour of Power FC. Wish I had done it along time ago.
