10 psi... finally!

I replaced my stock IC pipes with the GReddy ones, and I am finally hitting 10 psi. In the pipe that goes from the Y-pipe to the IC there was a huge rip. Unfortunately, my vacuum lines are still jacked causing my transition problem.

nice man, those tend to give a little trouble. I had replaced my coupler right before the intercooler from the y pipe and it boosted to like 8lbs, but had been running so long on 2-3lbs that it blew the motor!!! Nice job man, now fix that transition problem you have. What's your boost pattern with the RPM?

The last time I did a boost check, it was 10-5-5. I'm going to northern Europe for a month and a half, so hopefully I'll get my vacuum lines fixed after that. I'll probably get the Y-pipe pretty soon too.

Dude, the vacuum lines are definately in order...Be sure to read the threads thoroughly before you start as there are little things you don't want to learn on your own as it can get expensive, and also a few parts to replace while in there...Good luck with that and have fun in Europe!...
