Very nice ride you have there. Sounds real healthy. I would be scared at 14 psi. I just pushed mine to the 12 psi mark recently, and all I can say is wow. I'm really digging the "monster" holding the rotor. The vids are great btw.

Its red and its turbo......my kinda car!

Whats your times and MPH?

Id like to compare since Im also running 14psi,but on a quite different engine setup and vehicle.In all these years Ive never made it back to the strip since going with my new ported S5 engine and widebody.Used to pull 13.5's @106mph with my old junkyard S4 block,stock turbo and stock body w/205-15 tires.
Im a bit beyond that now,both in HP,tire size and weight....although Ive no doubt youve got me well beaten in the HP department, since Im running just a TO4B and stock S5 ECU.

the videos that are on Youtube the car was running in the high 11's and low 12's... My fastest time was 10.84 with this car and that was when the wastegate hose came off and I was boosting whatever.... The second run that night the rear plate cracked at the dowel pin near the oil filter.. But it was all good after the first run...
