Default My HMT hatchback

Hello everyone! After about a year of research on HMT and other forums, 3 blown turbos, a motor rebuild with forged internals, and unimaginable frustration here is my setup.

B16A with Probe Industries 9.0:1 compression pistons, Tuner Toys rods, ACL bearings, ARP rod bolts and head studs, Felpro MLS copper sprayed head gasket, Garrett T3/TO4E .60 trim turbo, HMT dump tube, IC piping, downpipe, and exhaust, DSM 450's, and bov, eBay intercooler and a SSAutoscat wastegate. It's a built motor but I still did it on a HMT budget and a garage has never touched the car. Everything I was able to do was because of sites like this. Thanks guys!

I haven't gotten any creep so far at 10psi. Would a wastegate neck fix that or would I have to look into a fabbed manifold with the wastegate at the collector?

It's street tuned so no dyno numbers. I will be up at New England Drag Way on the 15th though. I'll get some vids. I'm hoping to finally run 12's with 12 psi in the gutted hatch with some BFG radials mounted on VX wheels.
