[QUOTE="mbuono, post: 2369799, member: 9701"] Well heres the lastest. Found out that the couplings I used to connect the pipes were not up to the task and first time into the boost one split right in half. So had to order some good ones, like 4 ply silicone. Which of course takes a week to get here then had to find time to replace them all. But as luck would have, work was slow today and got busy putting the last few on. So took the long way home to test and everything looks good. Now for the good part, after warming up the motor (and rear tires) got temp readings between 140 and 150 in the intake and it was 92 outside. These were done on some 3rd gear pulls on the freeway. Did see temps reach 190 while sitting in traffic. So to compare to what I had before, I saw temps at 230 to 240 [B]with[/B] water/methanol injection doing same 3rd gear pulls. On the downside I lost 2# boost, was running 12# before and now only see 10#. The other tuning issues I have is getting some of popping out the exhaust on hard decel. Now I have to get my new SCT meter on, since I was pegging my Univer at 4200 rpm, then will put it on the dyno and run it down the 1/4. Don't have any road course events this summer but will keep you posted. All-in-all am very pleased with results so far. Thanks for the support, Mike [/QUOTE]
