I doubt it. He is just going through HP withdrawls and dealing with "No ET Syndrome".. Go ahead and ask him about his one and only trip to the track with his STS. *snickers*

Keith just wants you to spend more money...

The stock 6.0L can make a decent amount of power. Going to a 408 over the 364 isn't going to net you a ton more power while FI. It'll drain your wallet for sure though.

So this is a trip, we check out what adam says to and apartently everything is working fine. So next thing to do is open the wastegate and see what spring is in there(should be RED which is the 5lb spring, but guess what we find BLUE . I ask tech support what lb spring that is and he says, oops, thats our 12lb spring.

Well everything is working properly and so does there 12lb spring. They will be overnighting the correct spring tomorrow as they all went home when i was able to call them up. what a pain in the ***!!!

Just glad we found it!

I'm just glad it was a quicky fix!!

They really should be more careful which spring goes in there. It would be real easy for a newbie to blow some **** up because of amistake like that.
