I just put a fast 90/90 on it and was trying to do some tuning over the weekend. I went to silver dollar and couldn't keep the map sensor from blowing out of the intake. It gets scary when your map sensor reports atmospheric pressure at 9#'s of boost. I finally tapped the manifold with a hose barb and remote mounted the sensor. Yeah, I did horrible at commerce last year. At that time I was still on factory tires with no suspension modifications and my clutch was slipping. I've always had a bad habit of making power first, then figuring out how to get it to the ground later.

Lol. It's hard to turn down that kind of cash, when you haven't even made your first payment yet, and have already driven it several thousand miles and a month and a half.

Peace,

Cablebandit, someone at SDR told me about your car not running as well right after you put on the fast intake. They said they thought you just hadn't tuned for it yet. What was the actual problem? Did it hurt overall power or have some other issues?
