Default K04's and stock chip. Should I being seeing more that 10psi?

I've just did a few 3rd gear pulls and noticed I was getting ~11-12psi. Ended up shutting it down around 5K rpms to prevent any damage. Did a few more runs to 5K with same results. Is this normal? I thought stock boost was around 8-9psi.

Still sounds quite safe. N75 probably can't keep up and the ECU may be a bit confused.

Default yes it is. feel just as fast as my old GIAC(non x-chip)

I was hoping to take it to the 1/4mile and see what it'll run.

Default logged the runs to check the O2 voltages. looked like I was @ .79-.81v on the runs.

I think that's safe enough. what do you guys think?

Default Got a VAG?

It would be interesting to see actual vs. requested boost and MAF.

Default Stock tends to run lean, so you're probably ok.

Actually near spot on looking at some old k03 logs.

Target for .84ish when you tune, but that sounds safe for the low boost you're running.

Default should I break out the lemmingwinks and add a bit of fuel?

or keep it at the current level? Limmingwinks work with A-boxes right? can't really remember if there was any issues. Also could the 90-100 degree heat be a cause of why the boost is a bit higher?
