That boost gauge is accurate for how quick I get into it, and probably within 1psi on actual reading. An aftermarket gauge would read the same.
On a perfect day, I can hit over 11psi. The 2.2" pulley and intake make the boost response much quicker. So does the BCA adjustment trick.

I think we need to have safe drivers. Maybe a burnout is a little immature.. but hell I want to see one! loL. I've been trying for so long to get my baby to do one.. but it just ain't gonna happen, so I'll watch other peoples' cars instead .

I think in order of 'significant sound change' amongst our engines, it would go in this order for most applications:

1. Series 1 L67
2. Series 2 L67
3. L36
4. L27

With the older 87-91 gen being between 3 and 4 maybe?

VERDICT:

i like it

i am used to the whine, it calmed down a lot since it was new. i still dont really notice a power increase at any range though. but the SUPER part is my gas mileage. wow....i got 50-60 more miles out of my tank!!! i could barely suck 300 out of my old filter, and now i was just coming up on the empty area with 320 miles!!! also, this isnt even the best, because i drove the crap out of this tank. i am sure that over 95% of the accerations were 4g'* and above...so once i start driving like a grandma again, i should see another improvement. im pumped!

so...its all good now
