Well for sure the Riverwalk, tower of the Americas, Alamo, and the brewery would be nice.

Gauge seem to be working great. Already emailed and got a response on the fact that it was the wrong gauge... basically decided to just get a refund because exchanging gauges at this point is just too much of a hassle to be worth it.

The bad news is that I'm only hitting 20 psi. I'll need to check with VAST to see what this tune should be running, but most set ups similar to mine are running closer to 24-26 psi I believe. Not sure if this is something related to the CEL's or something entirely different, but pretty sure they would have had it tuned for a bit higher. Maybe it's just because they couldn't do logs since I had the break in period and once I get it revised they'll push it a bit more. If I can squeeze a few more psi, I'm not going to complain lol.

It's a nice setup, glad I could be of service. It was a real easy install.

Damn, 24-26PSI is a lot of boost

You do need to figure out what is going on with all those codes though. Did the CEL come back on after I cleared it?

Not yet... it usually stays off for a few days/drive cycles at least. It doesn't seem to be consistent, so I'm pretty sure it's only a sensor error... just wish I knew where to start. Posted a new thread with the codes so hopefully I'll get more help this time around.

Can you imagine the grin on the SA public safety guy (cop) that pulls over a car that implies CHAOS while he's jumping lanes like he's playing a video game?

Look cool guys; never eva put chaos, beer, pimpin', racin', etc. decals on a cool car that you're trying to impress people with.

I mean can't anyone play poker anymore, and hide your intentions on the street?
