I have boost!

Well, after over a year, I and my brother have finally put in the time to find out why my 10th AE that's been sitting for all that time didn't boost. After gutting the precat as it was pretty damn clogged and buying new hoses and clamps, she now boosts.

Tasty fast.

WhooHoo!

good but make sure you watch your boost levels you, try to stay around 8psi max with no fuel mods. also dont go by the stock gauge its very inaccurate by an aftermarket gauge

not nearly fun as 12 psi , i tell yah, the more boost the more UMPH, and the more UMPH the more you go

make sure everything is in order before you hardcore test drive it because during that one year things can rust or die out, i say change oil and flush the coolant out as well..

lol - That was my TII when I picked it up from the guy I bought it from. Stock clogged cats and replacement 1.25" piping.

Put in a DP, highflow cat, RP50 catback, and cone itake. I boost a constant 8 lbs with no boost controller.

You will be surprised at what intake and exhaust can do. With just what I mentioned above, I dyno'd 215 rwhp this friday on my 88TII
