Well I can't give you my long term experience since I finished installing it only 25 hours ago but I can tell you that it is easy using the PPC version, very straight forward and that the boost does rise nicely into the red on the turbo gage. The entire installation, spark plugs and air filter included, didn't take much more than thirty minutes. Twenty minutes for the PPC to reprogram the ECU (changed the air filter at the same time and 10 more for the plugs (check the preinstallation instructions on Taliaferro's web site, the spark plugs you have in your car ain't what you should have with the upgrade). It also drives quite normally off boost. When I did the ECU calibration suggested by Speedparts for manual transmissions cars (4, fourth gears runs from 2000 to 4500 rpm, flat out in 4th), I could feel the difference. Driving back and forth from work today, the car acted just like it always used to, so it is a nice stealth conversion, other than the hit on the charge card, the wife won't even know you did anything.
