Finally have my car back! + turbo

Drove it home today, everythings normal. ill try to take some vids / pics of the camp 2 i have set up and the FAST a/f meter. a/f went in the cup holder to keep it secret.

you cant tell my car is boosted until i floor it hehe =).

its doin about 4.5psi (default on tial wg) and im gonna get a boost controller put in sometime soon. it dyno'd about 369, dont remember what rpms. cant wait to get the boost up because im not liking 4.5 at all!

Seems low but it's only 4.5 lbs

We're used to seeing at least 6 lbs of boost. which I think is around 450 whp.

Congrats tho OP!

yea the mechanic had a bad day or something and put the vacuum tube on the wrong side of the wastegate and my car got up to 500hp with 16.4 psi at 5000 rpms. i was pretty freaked out and then we looked at the problem.

mind you this is all at 91 octane. christian was using minimum 93 and then 100 =) and its about 112 outside... sooo freakin hot in vegas.

You are not that far away from me. The rebel station is on St. Rose and Eastern. Are you running any cats?
