Boost comming on quick is the wonderful thing about superchargers. I bet what is happening is the cams are allowing the supercharger to work much more efficiently, causing your boost to go up throughout the rev curve. I think you may need to do some more tuning with this motor. I'm glad you are bringing this up, as this will be an issue for all of us to deal with.

I got to thinking last night, I don't think the cams will cause more boost. In fact they should reduce the boost since they will "consume" air faster. Hard to tell though. Wasn't the tune done on a 9 lb. pully? If this was the case, this might be the problem with your tune.

i was going to say that but I figured you would realize what you were saying. I am buying a rom reader/writer/eraser in the near future and I have a flashable chip for it. Using that with my g-tech I will try my best to get a better tune on the ol girl

Got my heads back from the machine shop. They look nice with the pretty new valves. Got the block back, but had to return it to have some grooves cut in the semi decking to allow some better coolant flow, since the inserts extend into the water passages. There is some room between the gasket and the bottom, but I want more room for sufficient flow. Also he needs to cut rings on the last three of my pistons. Hopefully he will finish by the end of the week so I can start to slowly assemble everything. I also received the cometic head gaskets and other subaru motor parts. I'll take pics as I progress through the assembly.
