If I  were contemplating this, I think I would want to ask Emre  the
following:  

1. Do you think 24.5 psi coming from a K24  flows as much air as a RS2 at
24.5 psi? 
2. Does the setup you mention  work because the charge air is so much cooler
coming from an RS2 in  comparison to a K24?
3. You don't think increased airflow versus unchanged  fuel values can
contribute to lean running? 
4. Does the ECU somehow  compensate for this?

At least get yourself a wideband A/F gauge if  you're going to do it.  I
wouldn't put much stock into what others  do.  For instance, did Tom M have
RS2 injectors on his motor?   How about the AW folks?  I bet if any of these
guys was to pull their  plugs, they'd look crusty white-a sure sign of
running a lean  mixture.




Folks,
He really doesn't need to worry.  The mass of the air measured  by the MAF 
determines the mixture, not the turbo.
 
I used "stage 1" software (it was, in fact, a TAP chipset) and stock MAF  and 
injectors to break in my GT30R equipped engine.  I have the wideband,  and 
there were no lean running conditions ever experienced.
 
He won't hurt anything.
 
Take care,
Dave
