Now is it me or everyone. I thought my BBV or actuator wastgate was bad because it didnt feel like i had very much boost. Driving my car so much ive just gotten used to the boost. not even remembering what it felt like when i first test drove the car. Im running about 10psi acording to my aeroforce scan gauge and it just dont feel like it.

~10psi is right for a 3.4 pulley, depending on ambient temp.

i think you may have the mod bug. only cure is more mods...

no, but seriously you will get used to the power level after some time, but it should still feel fast at WOT. 60mph should come up in about 5-6 seconds with your mods and no KR. i believe the aeroforce does 1/4 mile and 0-60 estimators. from experience though they are a little biased on the "fast" side b/c it doesnt know what to do when it sees wheel spin at launch.

i havent done the quarter mi and 0-60 with the aeroforce yet .i would rather give a slower qurter mile and 0-60 than a faster one. and yea the car still feels fast and can pass just about anything.

Its the mod bug, like drugs. One little hit, keeps you going awhile, then you get used to it, need a bit more.... then more... eventually you end up with something so stupid fast you're in danger of killing yourself.
