    So I'm curious.

    Ur on the pl manifold, have u experienced any boost creep issues?

    I know 2 guys here locally that are on crsx n have the same manifold and are having tuning issues that the manifold seems to create boost creep that's uncontrollable. Care to share info.

    I read that your tires spun on the dyno. Here at our local dyno a friend dyno'd his v6 turbo hatch on 15" street tires. The car made 700/500 whp/trq. Having the car strapped down well made all the difference. But nonetheless 486 on 15lbs is dope. So I could only imaging upper 500's to 600's coming from 22psi.

    I'm on a 44mm WG on a 8lb spring and without boost control it "creeps" to 10psi max. I have no problems with boost creep. Other than that I have a 1/4" line going from my distribution block to the bottom of the wastegate and a 3/16" line to the top from the boost controller. I don't know if that is even significant enough to make a difference.

    The dude said he would have to turn the dyno around if I wanted to do another 22psi pull lol but after that first pull I ended up with a boost leak some where.

    But since I broke 4th gear again right after I left the dyno I haven't worried about it :banghead:

    Why would he have to turn the dyno around?

    What's up with turning the dyno around? But man that must feel sick 22lbs shredding the tires on the dyno.

    I think because the rollers with the texture were on the rwd side and it gets better traction when fwd is rotating into that roller vs when it rotates into the smooth roller ?? Just my observation/guess

    Happened last time I got on the dyno with a different vendor. They did all the rwd first then moved the ramps to the other side of the dyno for fwd.

    My son said the dyno read 572HP but then the guy clicked something and changed it to 475HP so I'm going to call and ask if that's true.

    Hold on. You broke 4th again?! And why do you have such bad compressor surge/flutter in that video afer the pull?

    Also, meg, are you implying that Rosie O'Donnell can't drive?
