I can assure you that your installer or tuner or both missed something, we specialize in fixing these kind of problems.
I think you misunderstood what I'm saying about the very real possibility that someone can buy a kit and get actual results below or well below advertised. I did not say it happens all the time, but it absolutely does happen sometimes, and when you're the one who has spent thousands of dollars for the kit, it sucks.

As far as my install, with the poor results we were seeing from this kit, the tuner did test it for boost leaks, and the only place air or smoke (2 tests) came out was the blowoff valve. I bought another new blowoff valve and it basically was the same performance. The car did not go back on the dyno with the new/new blowoff valve but MAP readings were pretty much the same between the 2 valves. The fact that the car was 7mph slower on the track than the car that is on the ECS website certainly tells us that mine was not making any power. In this thread, that car's owner is saying that his is making similar boost to what mine was, which is a real head-scratcher.
