My old Eboost2 would do that and I don't think I ever figured it out with different combinations of reference hose hook up. My memory is foggy though on the details. Eboost2 is complicated to use and quirky and has its place in the racing industry but not on a street vehicle. TurboXs dual stage would be my choice if I do a turbo again. Simple and consistant.

Been wanderin if you ever got your truck together. Bad luck sucks...I know!

it's been quite some time since i've even spoken to anyone at w2w. for all i know they may have resolved the boost issue by now. i did tell them to put a manual controller on there if the eboost keeps ******* up. the idea of the electronic controller is great. but holy friggin confusing. wow.

by the way, natalie gulbis is really hot. watching the golf channel as i type this, lol

it's not done. it's basically done. once it's officially done i told jesse to drive it like he owns it. drive it like he assumes i'm going to drive it. i want them to put it thru the ringers. drag strip, highway driving, around town, the works. I have no intentions of flying out there this winter. f that. i'll wait till spring. also, wifey is due with baby #2 any time now so i'm not going anywhere till after she's born

just found out a few min ago that the heat shields have been fabricated and installed but that's all. they have 4 cars they are trying to finish up for sema. i said, ****, take my truck to sema, maybe someone will buy it. lol

i'm most likely gonna have them redo my leather while it's there since my buddy left a 2million candle watt spotlight on the driver's seat and burned a big nasty spot on it. unless we have a mild winter, i'm not going out there till march or april to get it. i should have them do a cowl hood while it's there too. why not right? it's got to get done anyway
