LOL 91 California gas going through FIC 950 Injectors. Worst gas, it looks like water its so clear.
For the track day and days i want more boost i will run some 110 that is sold at a gas station right down the street.
Come track day i would like to be running approx 35 psi.
I guarantee that you aren't running little to no knock on an untuned car on 91 octane and 27 psi. Aren't you on stock headstuds? I know you said you couldn't use your ARP's. Don't blow up what you just got done working on, get that shit turned down and work your way up.

thats the funny part. Its at the lowest boost the MBC will do. Im thinking that my MBC is fucked up. I have a 1bar spring in the WG, the MBC is a Forge Unos, and i dont have the smaller spring for it. so i think this is the lowest. I am considering buying the Gizzmo Electronic Boost controller that is good up to 3.5 bar (50 psi).
Im going to get the headstuds before the track day on the 27th
Ill just take it east on the car till then.

So if you have a 1 bar spring in the wastegate then why not run straight off the wastegate, 1 bar is ~14.7 PSI. Tom, your logic would baffle even Einstein.

I just changed that actually so that it is now running off the wg. I also found the exhaust leak. I didnt tighten the wg all the way, so the exhaust leak shoudl be gone now.

THEY ARE! Have you seen the magnus fuel rail before, I can almost fit a quarter in the barrel.

Make sure the top port on the Tial wastegate is open to atmosphere, that would cause an overboosting problem it if was capped or had boost going to it. But Forge stuff does suck, I don't like their boost controllers or BOVs.
Do you guys have cams in it?
