Philadelphia's Classiest Drunkards
I think it might be the ebay wastegate. I did lose 2 -3 psi and had to raise it last night. No boost leaks though. Its probably the gate or an exhaust mani leak because the boost is hitting much higher too. I need to find time to look it over without pissing off the wife. Again I cant complain about the power but if something is wrong I want to fix it before it becomes a problem.

It is expensive for what it is. I agree. But that's why there are suckers like me, guinea pigs for companies like SSP, until they get it right.

Ben, I think pete runs +35 and you know what he all has done I am sure.
I hit 459 and 386. It's in my sig now and it's staying there so suck it. I was starting to be ok with those numbers but I got curious so I started playing with some old logs. Pete logged all my dyno runs today and VDR is about 5-6 HP off on average from the KHC dyno. Using those same parameters in VDR and running my old logs, everything before about a month ago says 514-519 WHP on E85. Then all of a sudden they drop off to 465ish HP and my fuel trims go wackey. It hasn't felt as fast up top as it used to but I assumed I was getting used to it. I shouldn't complain but I wish I knew what changed. All my old maps are saved and there isn't any drastic changes that I made anywhere that would lead to a loss like that.
Regarding your comments about beer week, I think DR has like 4 events going on this, I have flyers for it in my car, forgot to pass them out yesterday. If you come out this way let me know, I'll meet up for one or two.
Friday night I took a growler with me to Chu's of Elysian the Immortal IPA, it was delish!
I had a good time yesterday for the few minutes I was there. I wish I could have stayed longer but I had to be home for a grad party, and getting there took longer than I expected. No hard feelings about the ride up I hope, but Dan or Shaw is NEVER, EVER allowed to lead the pack again.

Thats awesome that you got tp put it on the rollers yesterday Josh. Thats half the reason I went, I was hoping you would or at least we could talk you into it.
Ben, I believe the +35 is what you want, it requires no spacers or rolling. You making the switch?

btw did you need earplugs for yesterday? did those big loud scary cars make lots and lots of noise?
that's how it goes when you're rocking 745whp.
quit your complaining. you were the one doing ricer flybys on the turnpike on the first part of the ride up.

you're right. he was trying to line up with me most of the way. when i told him i wasn't going for it, he stayed there to give me the finger the whole time. then i overtook him in 5th when he got in my way

Also, I work in a shop where the importance for ppe is beat into my brain all day every day, so yes, standing behind a car while on the rollers I will cover my ears.
I was driving fine..and i told chu i didnt wanna lead but he insisted so its all of your fault! me and dan were just drivin side by side doing the speed limit so everyone else can go **** themselves
