You upgrade the pill in the pressure source hose, just like in the 8/9. You do not take any pills out.

Wow I am curious to see what a full bolt on X with a testpipe will do with this. If it could hit 330whp on Bryan's dyno that would be unreal. 300whp almost stock is damn impressive.

How about 301whp/300wtq with just a drop-in filter, boost assembly and tune?

306whp/300wtq with cone filter, boost assembly, catback and tune?

hmm... interesting... the catback didn't really see any gains until ~4300rpms. I guess not too unexpected but interesting nonetheless.

this mod with razors tune is amazing in my X. The spool and torque makes the car really fun. I've run this car at a track day already with no issues. Second day coming next weekend...

LOL, so Bryan when might I be able to stop by and pick up your boost pill? I'll be in SJ a lot and might stop by. Let me know the availability of these.
