I got to drive my car today. spent a little time tring to get the base line fuel pressure figured out. It's really a happy camper around 6 psi. Then watching the Fuel pressure gauge pop up to 15psi with boost is a treat.

but the reason for the frowning face it cause she is still running lean and the manifold was glowing red. so still need some tuning time. Just had a thought Im going to lower the boost to 6 lbs instead of 10 see if that helps next time she is running.

but the big problem was about 1/2 mile from home the damn wastegate stuck open. OMG loud. imagine a single 1 1/2 inch diameter 10 inches long pipe dumping everything you got and trying to drive through a residential area the car is too hot to touch right now so she'll sit for a couple more days till I play with her again and find out what parts I have to order.
