it is the Direnza / TX / GPi racing one. just a full alloy ebay one mate, not sure it is much of a improvement over standard other than the look.

Can you describe what this over boosting was like?
When I go foot flat my car seems to hit 12-14 psi on my boost gauge and then quickly drops back to like 9 or 10 psi. I thought this was normal but now I am having second thoughts haha...

It is normal, but hitting 23-24psi then dropping back to 19 is too much for traction and getting outside the safe range. So backing it off a bit.

Jesus that's getting up there in boost, nice work and thanks for the letting me know mine is alright - I always presumed it was norm.

I am aiming for 20-21 psi then hold 19.

Cheers bud Thought about the pwr rad but so exxy $825 from wolfracing Thought yours might be a tx autosport rad Think I'll give the tx rad ago

The ones I listed are all made in the same factory in China, if you look for the gpi racing ones on eBay you can get them cheaper that buying the TX even before you factor in shipping. If I was doing it again though I wouldnt have bothered as they all need some slight modifications as the turbo outlet from the cooler is 1mm too small and to not leak you need to wrap it in silicone tape or get the clamp super tight.
