That was my plan untill the orginal gauge I ordered along with the other mods arrived damaged.

What other mods? Aren't you still doing the VF34 and all that stuff?

Eventually, thats the plan. Right now I'm looking for more information on the gains with some of the services deadbolt enterprises offers (monster port on intake and exhaust, ceramic coating, etc). Also in regards to Deadbolt I have been looking into their TD05H-16G which is comparable to the VF34. I'm also deciding on a larger TMIC. I'm looking at the V7 STi package the rallispec sells or even the Helix top mount but I need more information on that one.

So basically my next tune will accomodate a larger turbo (low end power), injectors, pump and TMIC. At that point I'm sure I will be more than satisfied.

Before that though I need some wheels and tires, the RE92's just arent cutting it anymore.

Some time I'd love to go for a ride in your car to see how the VF34 is. That would help make my decision much easier I imagine. You have the upgraded injectors and pump as well right with the stock TMIC?

depends. on the street i will usually rev it up to about 5.5-6k and dump the clutch as i floor it. this did not work for me at sac raceway though, it was too sticky and i bogged every launch. so i need to learn how to properly slip the clutch. on your car you dont really have to worry about your tranny breaking every time you launch hard like us "regular" WRX'ers do. practice makes perfect. if you can sense your clutch startin to burn just let it out more, you know? most of all just have fun. we will see you on wednesday!!!!
