I have never talked or emailed Chris but Vernon is pretty responsive even with email. I even email him for other peoples install problem and he respond to my email all the time.

Has anyone seen the Dyno posted on STS Website? Is that Crank HP
Also their baseline is also high unless they have a Revup in there. By the way I have a Revup and I'm sure hell not making 387WHP and 400TQ at 8psi.

If you guys are gonna header wrap the actual headers, aren't you worried about them cracking from moisture/heat/corrosion/etc?
I'll definitely header wrap, but I think I'll use the header wrap AFTER the headers, from the test pipes back. Don't want headers cracking.

Since Winter is getting closer I think I'll hold on for any other mod until next spring or end of Winter.
By the way, I did a minor change on my Boost map and that seem to help me hold some boost in the upper RPM. I don't want to make any drastic change but I think the IC is not that bad for 8psi, though I still get some boost drop but not that much anymore or happen much later in the RPM. The colder weather is making my boost go crazy, though my boost creep doesn't go past 8.7psi. I'm still interested what a Bar/Plate design IC can do compare to the Tube/Fine.

I emailed Vernon about this pricing inconsistency and broken promises that you guys have been getting. I don't want to go straight to Rick about this but I'll let Vernon investigate and see if there is any truth about this.
aarantes,
Do you have any Idea when will Sharif finish the install/Tune?

FYI, this issue has been forwarded to Bill (national sales manager).So how's the setup Goose? Have you been using your high boost or you're still enjoying your low boost? I was running mid 11's A/F lately because of the weather and I had to bump the Temp Compensation +1 across the board to get it back to low 11's, I'm pretty sure you are ok since you have a very conservative A/F.
