Think I figured out why 8 psi ran so good I bought the car and still haven't had the "walk around with Don or Mike". I think I realize why the car seemed to run it's best at 8 psi.. I don't think I was pulling further enough up on the boost controller **** to actually change the boost. I went down to the garage tonight and something told me it wasn't changing boost levels right especially after the numbers in the sig was at 8 psi. I pulled a little harder upwards on the boost **** and actually felt some resistance as the **** turned. I bought the car when I was in California so I left alot on the plate as far as actually knowing the setup. At any rate I think I might be able to run a little better now.
