Ok, so what i did today was adjust throttle cable abit. Just to keep rpm above 1.5k, i then drove car for about 20 miles no boost. And thank gosh it didnt blow up, lol.
soon as it gets to a 1/4 tank ill add 3 gallons of 91 and maybe 1 gallon of e85. Should be ok till my tune on the 11th..

Thats the only reason, really. I heard thats what it does..
