I hope that by first admitting my problem that I can come to cope.
Ok. Here I go. I am addicted to b00st. There, that's it. Please please please don't let me slap what I just bought to my car...I might never recover.

Ignore the stuff on it. It is brand new.

The wheel is a 60 trim. Rated at 52 lbs/min.
RJ says boost means nothing. He is correct up to a point. Telling someone how much pressure you are subjecting the charge air to means nothing unless they are familiar with the turbo you are running. Telling someone how much air you flow is always a better indicator of power being made. Jack was asking me a few days ago how is 20psi on this turbo better than 20psi on the Evo16G...obviously the pressure the air is put under is the same, but this wheel outflows the Evo3 turbo by a lot. I was logging 35 lbs/min of air on the evo16g when I made 320 at the wheels. I hope to flow over 45 lbs/min on this one...I'm sure you are capable of doing the required math.
Anyway, I really do need help. Scotty won't ever get to drive the car the way I dynoed it (I'm a liar, sorry) but he will be the second to get behind the wheel once I've installed, broken in, and tuned this thing.
