It ran 1.1 since the GT640 was first installed. I made tons of inquiries, and finally decided to adjust the wastegates myself. I'm very glad I did. It's now running great!

I would still hook up a mechanical gauge to double check the boost. If you are higher than target then you will have issues. When the turbos ship they should not need any adjustments. A lasy boost valve or improper gauge can create an off target or incorrect reading.

Any chance you have the Bosch part number for the 986 MAF? You would think the measuring range of the TT MAF would be a LOT wider than the Boxster MAF so the output voltages would be completely skewed?
