I hear ya Zombie, mine is datalogged everytime I go out.
I use efilive and it has alarms you can set so if the computer ever registers knock the laptop screams and I get off the gas. That and my ear is definetly trained to listen for it.
Your a bad influence now you have me thinking oh what the heck just run 10psi, it will be just fine...............

they have a red, blue, green, and yellow if I remember correctly.
i got it at my local kragen auto parts.
once everything is all setup I will remove the pipes and give them another coat to fix all the scratches I am putting in them
then coat with clear and hope they hold up ok.

That is the pump for the water/alky injection. It will be pumping a water/alky mix in high boost situations to suppliment the lovely 91 octane gas we get to use here in California.
Kyle - yah the green they have will match your car nicely.
OldBlue - install is going fine. it's all pretty straight forward. if i was just installing the base kit unmodified it would have taken a day. but i have been adding and modifying things left and right so that has definetely increased the install time.

Nice install. Let us know how it runs!
Don't worry, once they get a little older, the HP bug comes back as strong as ever.

no, two tips. one for the exhaust and the other side I am going to plumb the wastegate into. I am using supertrapp mufflers for the tips. I want to muffle the wastegate sound as that is the one thing I hate about the STS. under boost all you hear is pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh. I want to hear whistle and exhaust and no pshhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhhh.
