Obviously, Gintani is willing to take things to the limit...and maybe a tad beyond in this case. Sub'ing to see what happens. I think we can all learn something here.

I think ESS is a much more conservative tuner...which, IMO, is why you don't see too many issues with ESS.
I do not think ESS is conservative to just be conservative. They have posted many times that it is not a good idea to run high boost on this motor. Im sure they tested the limits of this motor and set boost limits before they released their supercharger kits. Im not sure how much testing went into Drew's 9 psi setup before he installed it or if he was the test car but it sounds like if he had to do it over again he might not have run as high of boost as he did.
