I have the kit on my Si and having similar happenings. My car is with my tuner and he's trying to get it going.

1.The car takes a few seconds to start, although the tuner said he got it to start better now.

2.He said the trouble starts at about 3000 rpm so far as boosting goes.

My tuner has been doing a lot of research, he talked to TSI, Procivic, AEM, and Shawn Church, and it seems to be that the AEM FIC is just tricky as hell to tune just right. One reason being that the SI's are all slightly tuned different out of the factory. Anyway, I was told that once the FIC is tuned right, it will do a jam-up job.
