Finally turned on full power - K04/997's are nice :)
I'm going to try to log tomorrow and see what the data really shows, but if feels great to be back in my car again with full power. It was down for 2 months after a throwout bearing failure. During that time I rebuilt my K04s as K04/997s. I put 2300 miles of "break in" while running stock mode, and now I'm done with that. 
They do seem to take a bit longer to spool, but the power is (seems) much stronger above 4k or so. I'm still using the standard APR Stg3 93oct program, which has had no problem. I turned off my MBC (which I previously had set around 21psi to bleed off spikes). I don't seem to be getting any spikes, but I do see peak boost around 23-24psi at ~5k with these turbos, and 20-21 at redline. We'll see what the logs really say...
It's good to be back
