as i said before the car doesnt go into open loop untill 5000rpm at times and full boost is had before 2500rpm, we could force open loop but that isnt what we want for a daily driver. i have been thinking a lot about this project.

There's no reason why you can't open up the exhaust more. What's the downpipe / rest of the exhaust diameter?
I think it goes without saying you want the turbine a/r to be as small as possible though to get those ridiculous 2k rpm spool up times. However, you say you want more power in the top end, then state it's for a daily driver. You can somewhat have both, but which is more important to you?
As for the forced open loop tuning I can't stress enough how easy it is to deal with. I only have to make a couple tweaks when the weather gets substantially colder / hotter. Since I've already made a winter map and now am running a summer map, I shouldn't even need to do any tweaking next season.
Oh and also:

If you have this problem you'll know it lol. At least I did. You can feel the "hesitation."
