For a while i was considering buying myself a new toy, Turbosmart E-Boost 2, an EBC with a variety of features, one of them being the capability to map boost against time, rpm or GEAR. Now, I have noticed that breaking the traction on street tires is likely to occur not only on a hard launch from a dead stop, but also at WOT in 1st and 2nd gear short time after going over 10psi. Since this unit can control boost depending on gear i guess we could use it to stay within limits of traction in those gears! yes? no? suggestions? comments?

Since im still on internal WG and my actuator is on 13-14 psi, the EBC itself wouldn't help... Is there a way to lower WG actuaction pressure?? That is without welding the flapper shut and going external.

ive noticed my filled mount starting to "chunk" out...wheelhop was still there, even with the mount, just not as bad...
it is getting worse again tho, maybe its time for another mount swap..i think i may try a diffrent filler this time.
the black roofing stuff dustin bought that one time seems to work really well..i think imma give one of those mounts a shot, see how it is.
