Yah, maybe my guesstimate of ~450 was a little too much. Like I said the car was overboosting causing it to go into an extremely conservative tune despite the high boost. I was WOT through all the gears, I ignored the wheel hoping. It only got full traction in 3rd. How much of an affect can the wing have on your mph though? I had it set down (for the road coarse).

I finally did diagnose my overboost problem to the wastegate itself. If anyone has or can get me a Tial 44mm wastegate on the cheap quick, I might go again this year with it running properly.

Yea the wheel hopping is no good. Just get u a pair of et streets on ur stock wheels. Makes it so much easier and will cut out all that spinning and wheel hop. U will have much more fun then. Your road race suspension and stiff tires is what's giving you the fit but the et streets will help u big time. U might even want to drag more then
