Put some miles on the car today. Using dash command to get the boost reading and I don't think it's calculating it accurately. It's saying 12 psi without even hitting full throttle. Either way I'm playing it safe until I get the tune on Friday to see how much boost the car is actually making.

Here's a quick vid of a partial throttle pull. I'll do some proper videos after the tune LOVING the car so far!!!

Are you using a boost controller? You won't hit 12 psi if your only using the wastegate springs.

Just running waste gate spring pressure. Should be the 7.25 psi springs but I'm just being cautious until I get the tune. Not going to kill me to wait until Friday

Yeah, you're good to go. Last I heard the base tune was based off of my car when I had Vince at R/T Tuning tune my car. Always a good idea to have it looked at jut to be sure though.

Yeah I'm sure it's fine but just being safe since the tune is only a few days away. It's really hard not to go full throttle though Can't wait to give it the beans and see what it can really do.

You'll be giggling every time you go WOT for weeks. The first time you hammer it after the tune, the car will scare you.

LOL I'm already giggling at part throttle. I can't imagine how it's going to feel at full throttle. No doubt it's going to be terrifying

My whole drive home from the tuner I was thinking "Are you kidding me?".
