Holy ****!! is that the gauge on the left. Hopefully that's before you added the resistor. That's blinding. I will have to take your advice for sure LOL.

KMO43- Thing is Im not trying to run high boost. I had a 24psi tune. As far as the timing, I haven't driven the car since Mondays commute. I have been stranded in Manhattan working since. I will check it out tomorrow when I get back. I haven't even looked at the timing at WOT yet. The car was logged 2 weeks ago when I was at the dyno. I dont think anything was changed except an update for the 3bars and a K&N. This is why im leaning a bit towards the gauge.

I didn't think you were trying to run lots of boost was just saying to watch it

Not my car, but that is how bright it is without resistors.

Timing at WOT is 8-9 degrees. Is that a bit low? Held it flat out in fifth for a few. I didnt want to hold it long with the high boost reading. New Gauge came yesterday. Looks awesome., installing it tonight.

Yes that is lower than stock. Its tuned that way because of the high boost you are running. I recommend you get it tuned for lower boost to be safer
