It may be a lot of work, but you have to take baby steps.

20 additional whp with only 2 additional psi of boost. I'll take it!

I've never really planned on making more than 300whp. I think I will be very close when I go to 9-10psi.

Sorry... Yes it is still idling a little rough. It's a little annoying but not a big deal. I may change my plugs soon. I'm not sure of their condition after running at 10.0 for a short while.

In unrelated news, my car was featured in Carbon8 Magazine for this month!

Check it out and download the full issue: Carbon8 May 2008: Shadow Stalker

Subscription is free, page 16. Woot!
