I have the same setup. Hope to really put it to the test soon. I'm using a Tial 44 but I'm going to a 60mm. Mine is hooked up to a failsafe to dump the boost in case of an emergency.

Ok so I'm not reading all the previous posts so forgive me. I have tried the same thing starting with restrictor plates. What I found with the restrictor plates is if u cap too much boost all you create is way too much iat and turbulence. My car performed like crap. So I switched to a wg setup and found similar results. My car dynoed 788 wtq @ 4400 and 817 whp @ 5600 rpm at 17 psiThe tq is ridiculous fun making over 550 wtq at 3500 rpm. Problem is trying to ramp say boost at 14 psi and hold till redline is the blower creates crazy iat and major parasitic loss since the blower is still spinning to try and make much more psi. A lot of wasted energy and a short power band w hp dropping off way too quick.

My combo si just a little 346 ls1 with a f1d
