First off, I was planning for some upgrades, so it may end up at EVO in Arizona. But, the point is I should be able to figure this out, I mean what's fun if you can not figure your own car.

should ?well its obvious that you cant , i should be able to drive a formula 1 car ***** out , but guess what ?i probably cant !and its not YOU figuring it out , you have mechanics doing it , save your self the money and trouble and take it to alex or evoms and be done with it.

the more you have other people tinkering with your car the harder it will be for evoms or anyone else to daignose any issue .

and i dont call getting frustrated and spending hrs troubleshooting, diagnosing fun.Ofcourse thats just me .

and as you see mark also agrees with me , and im sure everyone does also.

So weekend was fun, We found (yep I work on the car too) the following

1) Passenger side turbo inlet loose/leaking.
2) Wastegate vacuum line had a crack, so it never opened properly at 1 bar.
3) My vacuum lines to Profec had a tiny leak.
4) the Maps Sensor for the Autometer boost gauge is off by 4 bar and was installed
improperly pointing up.
5) Car is equipped with a custom fuel system from Aeromotive, and the FPR is ever so slightly leaking.

So I ordered the map sensor for boost gauge, and ordered the rebuild kit for the FPR.
So an update is soon to come.
