CFM + looks cool,  of course now you have to do the foil delete and paint your IC tubes to match. Glad to hear the performance improved.
I don't think the pedistal change out really does that much for performance, but improved air flow is the name of the game and it will contribute more than most minor mods. Some people also choose to delete it as they hate the sound of it when it is running or they have oil leaks all over the top of the engine from the worn oil rings at the valve. I guess the time to make that call is when you have the turbo off anyway.
What did you mechanic charge for the CFM install or did you do it yourself?
ps: Careful with the wastegate tube delete, lifting the heads off the block from too much boost would be a bummer this summer.
