    Well I installed a DV/BOV hybrid valve

    My car has a MAF so I should not be able to run a BOV since it measures all of hte air in the intake. Well Forge designed this to basically fool the ECU to not throw a code. Yes it is RICE but it was about the same price as purchasing a regular DV plus you can set it to be Recirculating only or BOV only so I figure if I throw a code I will switch to Full recirculating.

    Got my boost guage installed yesterday



    I relocated the headlight switch behind the dash and just left it in the on position since I have day time running lights and its a hole is a perfect fit for the guage.

    Im spiking at 15 psi and it settles down to 12 psi till redline with my stock ECU w00t

    now I need to get that tune so I can be boosting at 22 psi

    I also got my XM Radio hooked up the other day.
