I just picked up the car yesterday afternoon. It is a monster on the highway. We still have some more tuning to do in a couple weeks with the addition of the FMIC and some other Perrin goodies.

The car definately has more lag, but is actually more driveable around town as you don't get into the boost so easily. On the highway, the speed that you need to shift between 3, 4 and 5 is rediculous. The idle speed is a little rough due to the larger injectors, but O'well. We're going to just raise the idle speed a little to help smooth it out.

Kevin, I can get it into positive boost at 2100 RPM and around 7 PSI at 3000 RPM. Max boost is around 20.5 tapering to 19. When we install the FMIC, we're going to do a run at 25 PSI for yucks!

Nate did not get a chance to work on the car yesterday, so currently the numbers are the same - 299/305. Nate thinks we should get another 20 out of it once we can increase the air-flow.

By the way - Mike K thanks again for the ride, and unfortunately I think I do have the flu, so start taking your VC and other remedies ASAP.
