Yes, this is a forum. A forum where you can type in, "Boost leak tester" or something similar to find out what "it was". Not to mention, that what most "newbs" do. They ask. Im sure everyone has done it. But if you just search it makes this forum much cleaner with better information instead of the same ole same ole. And Warrtalon has done nothing but give you help, so I dont know why your picking a bone with him.

And to add. If you state that your redline is at 7800 and that reaction time is the cause for you poor times. Then you obviously dont understand everything about the car YET. Warrtalon has been around longer so yes.. He knows a more than you. He is just trying to help

You weren't misinformed. The line on your tachometer turns red at 7k...that's your redline. The rev LIMITER, which is where your "revs" are "limited" is at 7800. That's where your tuner set it when he flashed it. The stock rev limiter is 7600. It's not knowing these basics about cars that scare us.

he's saying if you had more mods (ie. cams) then shifting past 7K may help....

rchristie00 -
the search function on the forums isn't as good as the google's, so you'll have to put in the exact terms you want to search for. The first couple of tries you'll probably get a lot of junk (Official Ohio Thread... Evos in Utah...) Just gotta keep refining the search. Chances are, any question you could probably think of has already been discussed a couple times, and the evolved members probably answered them multiple times.

Trust me, there's a WEALTH of information on these forums. (Just for reference, look at when I joined and how many posts I have..) And don't think Warrtalon (or anyone for that matter) is out of line for telling you you're being spoonfed, (because you are...) and this is the general consensus of everyone on these boards.

have you been to the track again? Its not your weight... I'm 6'5 280 and I'm in mid 12's. But why are running such low boost? I would say if your clutch is ok and you have no boost leaks then turn the boost up...
