any updates on the project?
Nothing has blown up yet. I've been turbocharged for over 50k miles now.
There's been some big improvements to the tune. Low RPMs are more responsive for part-throttle daily driving now, and nearly all hesitation/jerk/stumble issues I previously experienced are now fixed. It's not absolutely 100% perfect, but it's very good. The power delivery while accelerating up through the RPM range at part throttle is improved a lot too (very smooth/linear; previously there was more unintentional "ramping up" of power due to the turbo spooling).
I'm basically to a point now where I'm just driving the Jeep, not worrying about any issues, and not trying to fix/change anything.
I've turned the boost up to about a max of 11.8 psi now. When accelerating full throttle in 1st gear, then shifting hard into 2nd gear, my front tires come off the ground
I think the only substantial update to the turbo kit itself is that there's a new oil catch can system that's supposed to be more effective than the previous setup. I haven't upgraded to the new catch can yet.
