I have a stock bov uncrushed, no mbc, simply running stock boost on an 08 GSR.

I may just get an email tune from Jestr I know Mike swears by them.

Good to finally put the face with the name! Jer kicked major **** today with a overall pax win!

What a day at the PVGP, Dave and I got there just in time to get the 2 of the 3 last paddock spots. Changed tires, etc. My 1st run, POP! There goes the rear passenger brake line, mother f-ing clip came out of the coil over mount and rubbed it's way through. Tom B. to the rescue! He zings me back to my house, I find my brake lines and zing back to beaverun. I put on the new line, bleed the brakes, they let me make up my 2 runs from the morning, then get my 3 runs in the 'normal' heat. Ended up 8th overall and 1st in a one person class

Yeah that was crazy. Glad you got the brake lines fixed. That could have been major trouble. What can you say about Jeremy. He's the man. you got your car dialed in pretty darn good.
