Talking Been a bad boy

So i couldnt wait any longer and i figured i had to see if it would make any boost any ways. To those that dont know i have been buildin a remote mount turbo kit for my car. So matt at performance evolution sent me a start up tune today and i fired it up. Took it around the block put it in third gear, when i got to about 2lbs of boost let off to be safe. She sounds so nasty, especially the open bov. All thats left is fix a little oil pressure line leak, wrap some pipe then take her to middletown to get tuned.

yea i know i checked the short term fuel trims before i went out and made sure they were showing a rich condition first. and i wasnt gonna pour any more boost into it just wanted to know if it would boost at all. i would say it cost me around 2400 bux.

Jinkies scooby. 2400$? There's a mystery to solve there.

Be carefull. A good tuner would have sent you a break in tune that will not allow you to go into boost.
