Sorry, no dyno comparison to 1G. Supposedly it's comparable up top. Mods were just fuel, older PWR air/water intercooler (ambient, no ice), 3G MAF, 16g turbo, keydiver chip.

As for fuel filter, there's been alot of talk about the factory fuel filter being the primary constriction in the OEM fuel setup. Switching to a high-flow inline filter is supposed to be a big improvement for any moderately sized fuel pump as it will reduce back pressure and allow the pump to flow more. I've been contemplating it myself for a long time now.

Stock fuel filter is fine for 500+ hp.

the stock filter *seems* like a decent size/design, other than the banjo fittings (IIRC) as far as performance and would *think* the oem fuel line and connections would be a restriction first, but seems a lot of guys are making a lot of power with the stock fuel setup (minus pump/FPR/injectors of course)...Now, would they make more with an upgraded system, don't know; but it's good to know that is not a hurdle if you want to keep it as is.

12PSI is sissy boost. Once you turn it up,you'll realize it actually runs like a sled right now. A simple and fun quick spooling s16 setup like yours should run in the 12's no problem.
