Great numbers man! But I know there's gotta be a part of you that just wishes you could have gotten another .8hp out of that! :)
Super Bleeder!!

That is some rock solid boost control i would say.

Exactly what I was thinking... that holds boost super steady.

Yeah, when I saw that 299.2 the only thing I could think was "Oh man, it's so close!" And as for the boost control, I'm just using the Tial 38. No mbc or anything. Gotta love consistancy :)

Yea shane had told me mine held boost really well, but mine spikes a lb twice right after hitting full boost, you are just steady right until redline. Also your power curve is really smooth.

I need a SMIM...

Just thought I'd throw up a couple pics of the new wheels and oil pressure gauge

Looking good! Are you going to get a matching boost gauge?

Eventually I will. I also wanna get a volt meter, and a water temp gauge.

So I finally got around to repainting the roof. I also painted the upper portion of the driver side door because the paint was starting to crack a little from sun fade, and the lower portion of the left quarter panel because there was a little bit of rust starting to bubble up. Also, I tinted the tail lights. I forgot to bring my camera so I didn't get any pics of the progress, so all I have is the finished product. These pics kinda suck because the car is still really dirty (I didn't wanna wash it right away due to fresh paint), it still needs to be sanded and I still gotta buff the whole car. Big thanks to Mark for helping out!
