That sucks to hear that you got shafted like that. You should be good after you get those A/F's leaned out and get some better EM.
Bri your numbers are still great to have as a daily driver, not sure why you would want more if your still selling the car like you stated in the racing forum.
Be happy with what you have and enjoy it

Bigbri, how are they getting your car to boost to 18lbs with the Unichip??
I know you're running better actuators, fuel system and injectors but I've seen other tuners post that even with those upgrades you can't get over 12psi with the Unichip. I'm so confused!
Please let us know how Z Car pulled this off.

Good stuff, Bri. Post up the dyno chart so we can see how awesome that torque and boost come in! (plus I can compare it to my dynos so I know what's in store for me one day when we run ;-) ).
