Yep. I kind a got that feeling when I met sidejam and Malek the other night. I have talked to Cody and he gave me the ins and outs of how the car performs. I'll still be there win or lose. I can only keep trying to get better if I flounder (Glub Glub Glub) but then again I'm getting pretty good at featherin that clutch and gettin that beast to go in da snow. I might just surprise myself and a few others down the road. Ha Ha (nerves kickin in, head spinnin, must go faster....aaahhh race over. Quick whats my trap...15.2. Damb, dejected.)

see yah at the track

you seem to be the only one hitting that high of a boost. everyone that has a 2.6" pulley at our elevation is only hitting 18psi.

What exhaust mods do you have cause if you don't have any you could probably get the boost that high but your not gonna make any more power.
My 3" dp blew the end off last night and I put the stock converter back on and now it is hitting just over 18psi.

here is the thread

It's worth the trip.
Nice staging lanes also.
