Just set the base boost to approximately 8 or 9 psi about 4 weeks ago. I have a boost gauge in the car, and it's accurate (its been double checked by another gauge). I haven't had any problems with the forge actuator, but I do get audible flutter at high boost and low rpm's (noise only, no actual hesitation or mechanical failure). This though, as I've been told, is simply the ECU talking to the BPC telling it to limit the boost at low RPM's, since the head can't handle the high pressure at low RPM's. The noise stops one I reach higher RPM's. That's the only thing I've ever noticed. Then again, it made the same noise with the stock actuator. I think I'm set, thanks for your input.
