I wouldnt go drag until you fix the boost leak.. Fun, but sort of a waste when it comes to your times being off even a little due to the leak. Have fun though! Happy Birthday!~

you ran 14s? wow. im looking at the audi timeslips, andpeople with similar mods are running like 15.5 best. id be absolutly stoked if i made it into even the high 14's.

it seams we have basically the same performance mods but i dont have a testpipe, but i dont think that would account for half a second on the strip. but my boost leak is pissing me opff. i cant seam to find it! i found the last one no problem. well, ima do a pressure test 2morrow. if i do a pressure test, and there are no leaks, but im still running 15psi, does anyone know why that could be? my dad thinks its the computer not letting it boost at high for engine management. i dont think so...
