Well I tried to do a few pulls on my lunch break but didn't get much done.

I started off by richening things up - and then cranked the boost controller up about 2 full turns.

For the most part I wasn't able to go all the way to 8,000rpms. (due to road conditions,etc)

Anyways I noticed that my boost controller would hold at 17psi and then creep up to 20psi in the upper rpms every once and a while. I noticed my MBC is a bit rusty. So it's time for a new one.

Anyways Like I said for the most part all I could due was pulls from 3K-7K.

The one full pass I did to 8K was holding 17psi and showed 50.3lbs/min.
Took me forever to get my 02 readings, and A/F ratio - back to a decent level after I richened everything up. (when I started it was reading 9.8A/R and 1.02 on the 02 sensor. (ie: damn rich, and my fuel gauge showed it. After 3 pulls I used 1/4 tank of gas and had to go fill up.)

All and all I'm to nervous of getting a ticket. so I'm just going to hold off till I hit the dyno later this week. I'm also going to replace my thermostat, radiator Cap, and MBC.

My temps are still running high "216" when I do back to back runs with no cool down time. I also noticed my intake temps sometimes got up to 135degrees. After a run. But after about a minute of normal driving they'd return back down to 98-100.
