well marka and ryro will agree it was all pretty quickly arranged, we did what we needed to, chilled and went about our way. I was under the impression there were no hard feelings but apparently ryro has some. If you really feel like you could have done better just let us know we will once again drive out your way for a rematch ok ryro?

im running s3 fuel rail, injectors, sensors, fuel pump assembly (= returnless) and s3 pcm.....no SAFC no dtec no fic. 15psi is all i run on pump and dont plan on doing more until i get a few more things like exhaust and maybe a DSP handheld. I dont make excuses i run what i brung eventhough im well aware im running rich as hell it still moves for what it is.

I've never really looked into the s3 that much. I was considering an srt before the cobalt but they kept getting sold before I could even look at them. But the 50trim guy is a friend and I was messing with him before he put his 3" back on.

I know LOL. Stage 1 with a tune on top will spike 24-25 psi and hold 21-22 longer than a regular HP Tuners Tune only. OPs car will not hit above 20 psi no matter how hard I cranked the MALT and DALs. He needs a comdo tune and some E-47.

Ive ran and held 22psi pretty flat with HP alone, I have a customer's car now that holds 22psi to 6200 then trails to about 19psi at redline. Just HP alone, no pill mod or other trickery.

His car just will not do that. Some cars will boost higher than others even with the same exact settings. Some have tighter WGs I guess LOL. His car is pinning the RPD at 320 hp.

I know you don't like this, but ramp up the MAL slower. With it ramping quickly the turbo spools up hard, then releases then comes back on. Which results in less boost when it does. So while you sacrifice a TINY bit of immediate power, the rest of the band is a LOT better.

Meh, that S3 SRT on low boost going to high boost will be the same (if not bigger) diff as a stock TC getting tuned. That's like a bolt-on SC claiming to beat a tuned TC when it was just GMS1...with the TC having a handful of problems.
