5000 and 7606 are the stock limits respectively. Who knows what they have done, but someone was in there.

Now you know that your car has been modded to hell and back, ragged out and raced and then stripped back down to stock and traded in. More than likley you are only boosting about 12-14 psi too because he took off his boost controller and re-rigged the stock boost control lines and you are only running off wastegate pressure. Sorry but its probably the truth.

boost guage says i run 20 psi so if it had a controller it must have been removed and returned to stock at least halfway decent. and it came with full exhaust and arc box. why would you remove half the mods and not those? theyre easiest to take off anyways!
