Which is really holding anything above 22psi untill redline. Im trying to run 26psi...
    Bluefin stage 1, think around 12psi. (16 according to dr google, I don't have a gauge)
    I have the older diaphragm style one though.
    In checking my car pre-session, I also found I was missing the bolt that holds the intake in place, and that has solved my turbo whistle/screech problem

    Al..
    ps 220, impressive.

    OMG - that is entertainment; I think the next best thing besides driving around the track would be to go shotgun in the Pug!! I've got sore cheeks and belly from laughing at some of the commentry - especially when you express your obvious displeasure at going into corners too hot, lol +. Agree with Rhys, the soundtrack from the engine is great - reminds me a little of the BDA Escorts.

    Thanks for the vid!

    As for the comentary, I didn't know the camera was recording audio as well. I'll try to shut up next time.
    Haha no worries about the commentary, I thought it was kind of funny because you said it the corner before spinning out .

    I think i said woohoo and "need moar powahhhhh" or something like that a few times in my video. The engine sounds fantastic in your car, very raw sounding.

    Nice vid man! Did I hear you say "that was close" at 4:50?

    That sure was an impressive spin at 5:10. You did a good job at getting out of the way
