Just a heads up, you can check his profile and see that last time he has logged in. It shows his last activity as 7/9/2017, so he hasn't been active on the site for over a year.

Did you ever find out about this issue? It seems i have a similar situation with my 951, after swapping to a bigger turbo, and VEMS, it get red/orange wrapped headers while idling..

Since it's happening at idle and after swapping to VEMS... sounds like timing could be retarded - are you sure you set your base ignition timing correctly?

Hi!
Geneqco, you are right. Ign timing was off. Fixed it. Much better but still hot
EGT shows 350-400'-ish celsius idling. I suspect cam is off as well, I'll look into it.
Tanks anyway
