The perfect quattro launch left a poor soul in a 993 cab wondering if his car had stalled this morning.

Its just a matter of time before they lock me up. You've created a monster

Hey Pearly, at how much you spike with the BM and what is the psi sustained?

I'm asking you that because with the boost machine I was peaking almost 25psi but then went down to 16-17psi. I should have some leak or something.

I have APR 93octane chip also.

Thanks

I have it set to peak at 24psi....and it then settles in around 20psi.>>

Not necessarily a leak.....could be your DV too. I find that it also depends when you hit the gas....what gear etc..etc... Get a good DV if you dont have one....if that doesnt help...then start looking for leaks. Check all your clamps...make sure they are tight and look for cracks in the rubber....your DV relocation may be the culprit...check all the connections
