More clear pics. I tried to get one of the water neck & housing but the downpipe blocks it all & didn't show anything. Next time I have the downpipe off, I will differently get a picture for you. Tried to get a few angles.

if i could add some suggestions?
The oem coils will be "OK", but they will not last as long as with na.
At this power level you need a better ignition. Check them out--several options are out there.
Running colder plugs --I guess?
You didnt mention your fuel system--if you are still running on the oem fuel pump--swap out your old one for the s2 model--and soon. I would hate to see you have a fuel delivery problem.
Did they leave the intake valves opening at the oem times?
how is the intake air temps measured? The cars systems voltage in part is determined by the iat's that are sent to the pcm which in turn allows the voltage regulator to either up the system voltage or reduce it.
Sorry for all the questions!

Less boost required, less heat, less stress, etc etc.

All sounds good to me - 310 on 8.5psi is realistic and a good indicator as to what the potential for the kit will be . The fact they got that on the very first tune is testament to a job well done IMO.
400 whp at about 15-16psi should be very possible
What is controlling the coil dwell - microtec or stock ECU ? If it is the stock ECU you will want to up the dwell 5-10% from about 5000rpm on up before you try running more boost .

Don't make assumptions about what people do or don't know.
What's better 310whp on a small turbo pushing 20psi, or a bigger turbo at 8psi? It also depends on what you want to accomplish with the engine.
Depends on where in the compressor and turbine maps the Pressure Ratio and Flow are, the compressed air actual temperature vs calculated, etc.
Agree
There are many ways to see things and to design systems based on the goals to be attained.

They tuned out the dip in the graph & is why it's highlighted I think. You can see the over lapped runs where one dips more. That's were they tested if it was rich or lean there. I think adding more fuel on that spot made it dip more so they pulled some out right there to level it out clean. It's was gone shortly after but not sure it I snapped a pic or not. I was running around all happy 
I wonder if that dip has something to do with this :

maybe .......... but it's not like you have really tested it yet either . I did have an issue with mine when i first fitted it . After a hard left down to 1/8 tank and wot through the gears it gave up at the end of third gear . Was told at the time it was another issue ...... by guess who
True, I have not tested under track conditions.

rev it up
Sweet set up. Gotta be happy with the power you are getting.
I have found with increasing boost preassure I am now getting more oil blow by via the filler neck. I have now installed a catch can to deal with the issue. So, if you are on a high mileage engine then you may suffer from similar problems as you increase boost as boost will escape past the side seals and preasurise the crankcase.
