I wasn't upped to 7PSI - it is still 5PSI, however it climbs to around 7PSI (weird I know, but it does).

Why didn't I choose the Saleen kit? Well honestly, I wanted the newer TVS technology and a warranty.

Its my understanding that the boost is set for 5 psi and the boost after a certain RPM will jump for a bit...after reading many threads on this on a different forum it is the inherent design and efficiency of the S/C that causes this "jump" the actual boost is for the most part 5 +psi and the explanation which I wont go into seems to hold true. JDM explains this nicely on the "other forum" I will let someone else link that.

OP-Congrats on the numbers and enjoy being blown (even if it is silently)

Just a FYI...

Looks like Edelbrock just released a new version of the tune for the temp control.

mygt500, it does feel like a new car, like a GT500...hehe (just kidding)

Smooth considering your running close to the stock RWHP of a GT500 now it very well could be close to the feeling.....I need to go out and test drive one! (2010)
