just out of curiosity, how much boost are you guys getting? I'm only getting about 11-12 psi, and I know the PCM adjusts boost depending on climate, etc. Just want to make sure everything is where it's supposed to be.
Also, went down to G.I. Joe's (gotta gift card for x-mas), and picked up 2) 2-1/4" pipes w/fittings and clamps for $8.15, I'm gonna remove my resonators and see what happens. (Besides really pissing my neighbors off when I leave for work at 3am )
I couldn't figure out why it was so cheap, till I realized that I had attached the fittings to the ends of the pipes to check for fit, and thats all they rung up was the fittings and clamps. Oops. too late now I guess. Has anyone else tried this? any benefits?

Yeah I was getting 14-15 psi in summer, but it was 90+ degrees. Now it's oh, maybe 50 Like I said, I know the PCM will adjust the boost for air temp., I just wanted to make sure.
It's kind of strange. I never found any leaks, but it seemed like mine during the warmer weather would hit around 12-13psi and drop down to 10-11psi and hold.
Can't do much with it while it's stored away from the snow.
Hope to start messing around come spring.
What do you mean by stock? When I didn't have my wg on, I would somtimes get up to 16 and drop to about 14 with stg1. Before anything when it was bone stock, I would get up to 12-14 and drop to 11. Now I'm up at 18 and dropping to 17.

well by stock I mean stock only have plugs/wires ugraded for now, removing resonators tonight to see if it gives any gains. I figure if it doesn't, I'm not out anything.
Okay, I just got done deleting one of the resonators. Boosts quicker now, but still not more than 11 psi, tried reseting the PCM, still same. 8000 miles, maybe new air filter?

I don't know who you were directing this to, but I get 18psi by about 2.5k-3k rpms with no surge. Torque steer is crazy in 2nd gear, starts at around 2k and doesn't stop until about 5k, that's if the tires don't break lose.
