my car was running really weird tonight. i only got two runs. first was a 14.4 at 95.
before my first run, the car would idle at 1k. it seemed to have gone back to the original idle. now the really weird thing is that i hit that 14.1 with 10 pounds of boost. i was keeping my eye on the bost gauge and it went up to 10 and wouldnt go any further. the 2nd really weird thing is that on the way home, the car would get full spool like regular at 3k, but then would hold 14.5psi all the way to redline. i did a couple highway pulls and it would hold it. then when i got off the highway it went back to 14.5psi and tapering off to 10-11 near redline. i need to get EM asap. after my 14.1 run, i stopped in fear of something being wrong with the car.

I saw you make your first run of 14.4

I was watching at the bottom of the stands at the front where everyone stands. I was also walking around the pits to check out all the wrx. I am an asian kid about 5'6" with a white button up collar shirt long sleeves. Also, if anyone saw a white sti with a cf hood in the dirt, that was mine. As i was leaving, some *****es decided to park completely around me and i could not get out.

I have wednesday off next week, so I will probably go for the first time too. I cant wait any longer on my gauges. After watching twice, I'm hooked and want to run.

The Omori EGT and boost in the autometer cluster surround. This company J-Spec tuning sells the whole package for $390. Not sure when theyll get here and when I can install them though.

I'm probably ok to run, but its always nice to have that extra assurance from your gauges you know. I trust that my tune from Nate would be safe in anything I throw at it.

Good deal. So did you install the egt yourself or did you have SS do it?
