well i believe on the AEM unit you can change the load setting from inHg to read psi. im using an safc =( dont think this guy is running a AEM, :roll: , but your right, its easier to rule things like this out rather then take a shot in the dark at what it COULD be. well you got me there, i somehow ...

Are you reading 8 "psi" or "8 in. of Hg"? just checking because some people make that mistake. if you were reading "8psi" that would make around 15 in. of Hg.

NOOOOOOOO!!!!!!!! i have the same turbo and was hoping it would max out around 550-575. But nice numbers anyway, love the power curve. how much boost are you running daily?

do you think you can get better numbers with V2 intake or maybe even a V3 intake cam? if so how much?

boost scramble allows you to hit a certain psi over your high/low boost setting. for example your boost setting are low-13psi, high-20psi, scramble-25psi. say your racing at 20 psi and you want alil more boost. when you hit the scramble button it will hit 25 psi, but only for the amount of time you ...

This is wat i was told. it doesn't come down to pressure. you just need high VELOCITY. The faster you take air in and the faster you get air out, the quicker the throttle responce and higher torque. Reason why bigger exhaust pipe =low torque is because the air gets to cool before it leaves the exhau...

also if only the fuel supply line is pressurizing then just disconnect the line at the hard line of the return side, stick the hose in a small coke bottle and have somone turn the key to the "on" position and see if fuel is getting pass the fpr. hope that helps.

from the pic i cant really tell but if both lines are pressurive that means there is somthing clogged on the return side? if the lines were on backwards wouldn't only one side be pressurize. the return side should have zero pressure i beleive since it just returns fuel back to the tank.
