WTF is happening
^he already did...
Ok we did a compression test and the numbers are good 158 158 158 162....we did a boost leak test and did not have any leaks at all....now that I rember if it means anythng yesterday was humid really humid cuz it had rained during the morning..... but I mean this thing in the street is nutz...so idk...
starts flashing at 4 counts..... and i went to the track tonite again, and still couldnt run better than a 12.7 at 111mph...another guy thats has a evo 9 wit a fp green and s2 cams couldnt trap higher than 114mph...so that made me feel better...mayb the track just suks...i will be goin to a different track next week end...
I do have a 8 though. the best I could do last night was 12.2 at 115mph 1.8 60ft
Today I did a boost leak test and had to bad leaks (Nisei licp weld and Forge wastegate nipple) I had to JB weld the licp and loctite the nipple. Boost leaks fixed so now we shall see what I can do at Firebird next week.
It does sound like you have a boost leak though.Hope you get everything straightened out.

idk if this means anything to anybody...
when i had my 8 turbo i used to race my buddys camaro ss procharged for a 40 roll to 120mph, and we would be neck to neck....i mean it could not get any closer....and yesterday on my way to the track i raced him again but with my green ofcourse and i pulled him by about 1 car and ahalf to 2 cars.....so i know i havent lost power.....sounds weird doesnt it??

Maybe not building enough boost from 2-step or launch? That might explain why you beat the car from a roll and can't trap higher now because your car might be taking longer to accelerate due to the fact it struggles to build boost compared to your old turbo from a dig... Tune your car to build more boost on 2-step. My guess, if I am wrong don't bite me
