A lot of TM stuff related to the supercharger and boost. I'll let you know how it feels over the weekend and if it fixes the problem i'm sure Scott will get the fix out. Basically I think there was a torque limiter that dumped boost. It felt kind of like belt slippage to me. I don't get that feeling anymore but have not had it over 100 yet.

I've been over 100 and it kept climbing. However I'm sure our programming is different.

That and the problem seemed to be torque related. When a certain amount of torque is made the car dumps boost. Your not making the same amount of torque some of us with the problem were making.

MY only concern is I bypassed the solenoid by unplugging it so the PCM couldn't do anything.. the car only builds 4lbs of boost because it can't stay closed but the problem still remained and the boost needle held at 4lbs.. I told scott this information so I'm sure he is aware.

I will say, this thing makes loads of torque but the torque occurs down low, up top its all HP.. *shrug*

Very interesting Todd, I'll have to pick up some new wires and see if that'* the fix for me. Going to send back my PRJ'* if the problem is gone.
