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.

I haven't had much time to play with the car recently. I've been away on business and have otherwise been too busy. Hopefully that will change the next few days.

hhmmm that I guess combination of weather + it can be hot at Julian's shop so he had you setup that low. I think high 10's and low eleven should be a good area for safety.
By the way I bumped my Boost Map at area 5000-5500 and added +3 and that seem to help me hold boost (around +/- 8psi) until mid 5000 before it dropped, before I was dropping PSI before I even hit 5000rpm. Keep us updated on your findings after heat wrapping the exhaust.

I try to stay at that area or even high 10's. In the summer 80+deg I usually hit high 10's to low 11's, I rather have that extra safety

When you let go of throttle after cruising or boosting, does your AFR richen up and hold there for about a second before going lean?

From the language, it doesn't seem like Chris was the sender, unless I'm reading it wrong.

I almost want to say screw it and get my money back. Either that or free intercooler if those prices he's spewin out are being honored.
I know it's not STS's fault as a whole, but as the saying goes, one rotten apple...
It just feels like I bit into that apple and it's leaving a bad taste in my mouth
At first I felt ripped off by it being offered for $200 cheaper and him telling everybody there's only x number of kits left, then I let it go, now I'd really like to know what's going on. I don't even have a tracking number or anything, and I'm owed a $400 refund... (legit refund, nothing to do with the pricing fiasco, I was over-charged)

I got a tracking number but it didnt work... My kit just showed up at Forged one day.
Man I feel you I mean 200-300 difference is no big deal but when there are 3-4 prices out there that is a little weird. And now that Daniel has been offered one for 3995 that really pisses me off.

No Daniel's price (3995) was a Typo, he posted this long time ago and I verified this with STS and they all said it was a typo. Don't worry about the email coz you are not the only one who got it.

Yeah I know that. I just dont like that Cube got charged 4995, I got charged 4805, and now I get an email saying its 4450 all in a matter of a week? And the fact that me and cube were told that we bought the last 2 kits and all of a sudden 4 more show up??
