Car feels good! Need to do more testing though. It's about 44deg right now. Going to be colder tomorrow and the day after. I'll see how it goes.
 
It's taking it well. No cut spiking to 10psi Justin. I think it's because the location of the maf.
 
With your mods (fmic & cai) 9psi should feel pretty good.

Get an exhaust and you'd see some pretty significant gains.
 
9psi should be a nice jump....

oh btw my clutch is a little bit stiffer then yours, but your 1-2 shift is 5x smoother then mine :(
Also it sounded like you BOV was opening b4 letting off the gas... maybe it was your wastegate though...

sweet ride though (thumb)
 
You noticed that also? But if the BOV was opening b4 the throttle was closed than I wouldn't be building boost no? It could be just the air rushing through the pipes.

I was running 9psi before the winter and took of the controller for the winter. Now I decided to put it back in just because I was bored with the car hehe and wanted to see what would happen as far as the fuel cut goes. I'm not sure if my car is flashed, because I still have a hesitation from 4-5.5k rpm even though I went to two different dealerships and supposetly had the car flashed twice. I saw one of the dealerships actually perform the flash, atleast that's what I looked like, a guy in the car with a little computer type device.
 
It didnt look like you were loosing boost... yet i heard the hiss of the BOV..

I did feel the hesitation though, it felt like your off boost betwen 4000-5500rpm's
 
probally about 6k... boost built real fast, then i felt it die out a lil. (now i understand the msp hesitation)

i took it real easy on it, and only went .5 miles...

I really miss how quiet my car use to be...i need to remove my awr rear mount.

next time you and Akhilleus get together to mess around with your cars, pm or Im me so we can meet up.
