I blieve it's 13PSI is what it can read. But it's not like it NEEDS to be upgraded. It still works perfectly fine.

Yeah he can just see what PSI it's at then, but your it does just the same if you tell him what your boost gauge is reading same with AFR's

91... Still waiting for Vince to get my 91 tune down before we go to E85. He was supposed to send me a new tune again today and didn't... UGH! He wont be back until the 20th either.

so we fixed the trans issue finally. now we're working on the top end issue. it's nice to have control over the trans again and not be limited by safe mode in the lower gears.

Vince discribes it as the ECM limiting torque on some preset scale. he's been making adjustments to it but i'm still seeing the power break up at 4.5K. we just got the trans tune dialed in today and it's hard to get out while i'm at the in-laws house. they don't care or understand the whole car tuning thing and last thing i need them to know is that we're turbo'd now. they would have a **** fit.

No wonder why you're running fine 07cobaltguy. It's not till you get into the higher PSI that my car starts to eff up I'm running 10PSI right now... On a tune that's meant for 20 PSI. STUPID RICH. Vince evidently doesnt want to fix it though.

Every post I've read about the lsj pumps, at least the 06 and up i think, say they out flow the walbro 255 and people have gone up to 450 on them. The pump I got is supposed to support 700 hp with e85 so I don't know what's going on. I did have trouble getting it to fit in my canister and performance autowerks wanted me to send the canister and fuel pump in to see that it didn't fit in there. I should do it now but my canister is all cut up from "making it fit"
I'm going to get a fuel pressure gauge pretty soon and see what my fuel pressure looks like at the rail. Just don't have anywhere to put another gauge lol

No i don't have a guage pod to put it in right now. I'm debating getting the dual guage pod for the steering column and dual interceptors but i have a wedding and honeymoon to save up for.
