but seriously, if you get a video done, I'd like to hear how that Greddy RS BOV sounds. Ola has it on his, but since he never drives his car, I dont' know what it sounds like.
as for the BOV, yeah i'll try to get you a vid of that tomorrow if possible... i don't need to drive hard for that, just get it into a little boost
how does the HKS SSQV sound? have any clips of that on a tC?

I keep meaning to take vids but I never find the time too.
I should just set up the tripod when I'm driving around tuning...but yeah, I love it. Low boost gets a little flutter and full boost gets a loud whistle! I can even pull back on teh gas slow and make it a long whistle!

i purchased the greddy pressure sensor and harness from dezod. greddy sent them the wrong shipment last week, so my sensor should be getting to dezod by this weekend. paul upgraded my shipping for free, so hopefully i'll have the sensor next week. if that happens, tuning will come shortly after. i've essentially been waiting on the pressure sensor so i can tune off of boost instead of MAF.
as for pics, yeah i'm a lazy butt. i'll keep trying to remember to take some, but in all reality i doubt my interest will peak enough until it gets tuned and i have dyno numbers to go alongside pics of the setup itself.

cool, i may try it over the next few days...
does anyone else have major piping vibration at idle? (the section near the BOV) mine vibrates like CRAZY... just wondering if that was normal or if you guys had done something to brace it.

my valve cover started melting, but that was in the vegas summer.
check where it's rubbing and make some adjustments.
I know I said I wasn't going to read and post in all the threads I missed, but i gotta still help my TT boys!
