Definetely wait and see what Jonahs gets done. This could be really great. Oh and do not be afraid of the temp on the system. Jonahs is absolutely correct in that the temp goes down in the pipe with 5 lbs. of boost, pipe acts just like an intercooler. If You go past that boost be looking at adding everything to increase fuel pumped to handle the inj. size increase to handle the increased boost, intercooler to handle temp etc. so it does not lean out and blow the top out of a piston, it all goes up when you pass 5lb. to 7lbs. of boost. More air more fuel is needed. Jonahs has the Dawes lights to watch His air/fuel, He has exhaust temp gage to watch that pipe temp, and installing a boost as well. He recommenned them to Me and My Dawes came today Jonahs for the info center You designed. I'm thinking about adding the tire monitor in after seeing how well everything fit in Your console. Jonahs would you remind Me and anyone else who may want the tire monitor where to get it at. I had it saved in favorites i thought. They will tell Him immediately if He goes towards lean. Knowing what is happening is very important and besides boost gauge I think the Dawes lights that Jonahs found is probably just as important. This STS works great like they desribe its use and does what they say it should. But like Jonahs told Me you need to be in a position to know if something changes. The INFO center solves that.
