    sounds like you still have a boost leak somewhere, check all couplers and clamps, if your turbo is really loud or sounds like its spooling its ass off you have a bad bad leak, or a turbo thats taking a dump

    That's actually an old-skool trick to get a few more HP if your wires and ignition system is robust enuff to jump that gap - it's a bigger spark.

    Also - look at my 1st post, this is EXACTLY what I told u the problem was.
