When you get stressed out with your computer, you tend to punch the keyboard. The most likely words to come out are "gh".

Use the old one's put them to a fitting death, squealing, squealing around every corner like last time!
I have some touring 225/50/16's with maybe 4,000 km or less on them I'm about to put up for sale but I would not recommend for track use.
I'll be sporting some R compound (245/45/16) on my stock rims tomorrow, want to try them out before Sigma, but I figure it will be a big change from my 18's hopefully for the better.

Well, had a great time at the track and love the R888's. The rich newbie club was out with their better half's, wife's and GF's including a Lamborghini Murcielago which the guy spun out into the grass just as I came out of turn 7 before the chicane. Other notables a Maserati, 2 911 GT3's with most of them getting a black flag for really stupid ****. Now to the bad news blew up one of my front brake pads and scored the **** out of the rotor and did not notice this till the drive home. Dam helmet can't hear ****! But that's not that a big deal, while ready push it down the front straight I notice I was only boosting 3 lb. so I cut my last session short. I the way home I tried to hard boost with no luck, but believe it's a vacuum leak somewhere and hopefully not the stock turbos or that will put me out of Sigma. Here's the scenario under WOT very slow to come out of vacuum and then only reaches a constant 3 lb. not my normal 12-10-12(JDM). As I lift off the throttle slowly she drops quickly to 25 lb. of vacuum and settles out at around 10 lb. while cruising. Any suggestions to point me in the right direction would be appreciated to get her up and running correctly. By the way she's a bone stock engine / turbo configuration, rats nest and all.

Thanks

Thanks, guys I figured that. All the household chores done yesterday, so it's back to life in the garage today to see if I can sort this out.

Love the r888's on my stockers, really tell you when there about to to let go but are very correctable. They don't look pretty but do a great job. I'll bring your gas money and thank again for the brace seems to help but noisy as hell.
I don't think $80 will cover your gas, I killed a tank at TMP and had just topped up to a half tank with race gas when I blow the lines. Grand Total $160

She's alive! After spending two days of find & replacing the blown lines. Also while she was up in the air replaced all the brake pads, so I'm ready for sigma again. Jim thank God you gave me two of the small elbow hoses as the first one disintegrated as I put on. Thanks Doug for your help again.
