Very smooth. How did 167 feel? Amazing. Congrats -- I updated your time on the list - you move up 1 position.

somthing fell off the car when I got on the tbrake...almost looks like something that was sitting up in the bumper cover (maybe from burnout or being thrown by the sticky tires on the return road)

just like any other boost control. Instead of using your boost signal as a reference you use CO2...that pressure is available at any time (not just after the turbo spools up)
