Found the problem with my car- now making full boost.
I did the pressure tester the other day and found some serious leaks. I was making 18-19 psi with spikes at 20-21, so I did not think I had a leak. However, power was off in second gear. Turns out that the F-hose and TBB were ripped. I am now making 19-20psi with spikes to 22-23 and the cars pulls strong. If you want to see pics, you are going to have to look in the pic poster because I couldn't figure out how to post multiple pics in the same message. Krisko, we are going to have to meet up again sometime so that you can drive it and feel the difference. BTW, I am APR stg 3, and prior to this was beat by a stock C5 vette. This feels like it eliminated the problem.

I'd like to get another crack at your car now that you fixed it.
Like Ross said, consider investing in the bipipe and possibly the Fhose. I know you don't want to throw more cash APRs way, but there really isn't anything better out there. You can probably make a post on S4 forum looking for a bipipe and get it used for $225 or so.
We should definitely meet up in Palm Beach (moroso) this wednesday if you can make it. I want to get some quarter mile runs in before it hits 90 daily. If you ran some toluene, you should be in low 13s or even high 12s. It's time for some brakes now that you got your boost issues sorted out.
