Holy hell , I got an m5 and worried that it will be too much. Is yours brass color? I got the nickeled one which is the most corrosion resistant. Talking to AJP, he was happy that I don't have a progressive controller because its easier for him to tune. Set pressure will be 10 psi.

If your looking for an extra level sensor, the stock ones are affordable and OEM.

I should really branch out to a new thread

Thats why only LMS is striked through
How often will you be chilling in the 5-10 psi range? For the strip its WOT or not lol. I have been monitoring my way to and from work and I never hit close to 5 psi.

Ahhh, the strike through does not come across in the Tapatalk app...
I don't daily drive mine... so when it's out...it spends a bit of time in that range...
When I DID daily drive.... I still spent quite a bit of time kit be range ha!
Ur doing it wrong!polskifacet said:Thats why only LMS is striked through

Joking aside I see maybe 2psi on a super calm mindless commute day. But, days where I have any energy after the lifestealer of work is over hitting 5-6psi happens a bit, maybe even 8psi.
Scheduled for next Friday to in stall and calibrate in the shop. I plan on setting it around 8-psi so that in the summer it kicks in only when I push harder (not flooring) than usual on the pedal.
For race day I will toss 2 spare gallons of 30/70 in the trunk and set it to 3 or 4 pounds as a test to see if power-braking will trigger it. log it and see what's what..
2300rpm logged shows me 3.5 pounds of boost. so we will see how that works out...

crossing my fingers for you Toph!! Was thinking about if I made a mistake selling the meth kit on way home tongiht, looking at 165* sitting at traffic light, only dropped to 135 moving... but then realised it is my DD and fast enough as is given I have not seen a dragstrip in 20yrs..TopherSho said:

@lamrith In traffic it will never engage. When I though about the design of my system the key phrase was design it for "WOT or not WOT". My car is a daily too and it is awesome seeing IAT2 drop 50+ degrees .
I think I may be repeating myself but we don't have 50 psi of boost to deal with. I don't see the benefit of having a duty cycle between 5 and 10 psi when the ramp up on these turbos is blistering quick.

I was referring to exactly that. Seeing my temps only drop 10-15* even if I get spunky and push the car makes me wonder if I should have kept the meth kit for when I want to play on hot days. Be nice to see it go from 157 to 107 rather than 157 to 144* when I leave a light hard and boost to around 8psi... But then when I thought about it more, in the end I just do not want to go thru the hassle of the install given the car runs well as is and does everything I need.polskifacet said:@lamrith In traffic it will never engage.
