Okay, I'm officially boost happy. You guys were right, it's HARD to stay out of boost. I've only gone past 4500 once, which was when my tires broke loose in third gear. Aside from that, I've done some 1/3 to 1/2 throttle pulls from 3000-4000 rpm, just to get a feeling for it.

The first couple of time I was at the drag strip, it was just spinning like crazy the first few precious seconds >.<

I have to tweak my apexi to boost by gear, I believe its called. I might have massacred the name >.< So hopefully that will help.

oh speaking of 3rd/4th gear.
Ace I spoke to the people at hydra about the cam map. Its one they built, so its not the stock cam map, like we thought it might have been.
On a side note, the vvti kicks in ALOT at about 3rd/4th gear some load and high rpms ^^
I'll take a look at it next time I borrow my bro's laptop. I just glanced at it when I was boosting over the weekend.
