Tgv Delete interested?
Chris K. from Engine Logics will do the Tgv Deletes for $185. I picked up a set of 06 Tgvs on iwsti for $100 shipped, and selling your stock units can net you more that I paid as many ppl are now looking to send them to him. A better investement than $585 for the APS units with the cel fix you wont need if you have ecutec exct.
Flow tested:
before = 330cfm
after = 480cfm
increase = 150 cfm
Flashsplash
1st pic is OEM and the last 3 have been ported and flapper removed

Many ppl think you only need port them for big turbos b/c with a 3 inch inlet in the stock location you will need to remove the sensor and take the tgv all apart and perrins kit gives you brass plugs to incert into the holes. Or you cant use a 3" inlet it wont fit. The pic I posted this time shows the passage way of air your engine runs on when the car is at idle and the flaps closed. When the flap is open like at wide open throttle the max air flow tested is 330 cfm.
After Chris removes the flapper, tig welds the holes closed and ports the Oem units they flow 480cfm. 150cfm flow on a boosted engine is a huge gain stock turbo or not. The main reason ppl dont do this all the time is b/c you need ecutek or other to shut off the cel. the Aps units give you a cell fix for stock ecu but there are 500+ as this is only 185.

It's the motors not being connected that give the cel. Some people just pull the tgv motors to one side of the engine and tie them down. Others get inventive, lengthening the wiring to the trunk, and tying them down there.
