Charge pipe mistake
So apparently I couldn't figure out why I wasn't getting as much boost as I should with the mods I have already. Barely hit 10lbs. Rechecked everything and finally noticed that when I put my new charge pipe on, I never or even noticed that the stock o ring to the throttle was still on the stock pipe. Well needless to say the car now runs crazy!! Crazy fast that is. Hitting 15 n over on map 2 now. Wondering if anyone else had that problem or forgot also...

Haha I didn't log it yet but my P3 gauge only give me 10.5 psi which is not corrected, still need to tap the wire but being lazy, also I have ETS CP so no need oring. Just feel like I don't make enough power as it should with my butt dyno. Guess need to log to figure out the boost since I am running map 2 now but I can't break loose the tires ;(

Have one better for you. Having a shop forget to transfer your O rings from your stock headlights to your OSS set. What a fukin nightmare that was...

p3 gauge works great on flash tunes though and will read actual boost readings. |

Just read this. I have a charge pipe with a bung too but no injector in there. I want to use it to read the boost pressure. How is that working out for you?
