So i had a very aggressive drive home on a really windy road and then when i got home i saw that my peak boost was 20 psi. is it just my gauge going crazy for a second or did my car naturally reach 20 psi of boost?
(ps i have all my mods listed below)

 

Very possible that you had a quick boost spike under heavy load...even with a stock tune

 

I think the Decepticon Emblems had something to do with it. Maybe you should keep an eye on your Mini to make sure it isn't doing battle with any Autobots in the area.

 

Thats what i was thinking... my baby is going out in the real world and fighting crime... hercules, hercules, hercules (nutty professor voice)

 

That gauge is sweet. Can you send me a link to where you got it? Thanks!

Awesome local shop for me.. owner there is awesome and has a mini himself. he is actually on this forum. i would talk to him about gauges before you buy one yourself

 

Prosport= Horrible readings.


In stock form my prosport read that i was at 16.5 psi which is mumbo jumbo and when tunned it read 24 psi which is not possible on an S.


Change your gauge up to something w some quality. Not trying to put you down but the prosports are straight junk, i gave mine away for free.


They are also very latent in readings(needle moves slow)


PS im in NOVA as well and would be happy to show you what a good gauge should perform like :-p

 

It's pretty simple. ProSport is a crap gauge. You get what you pay for. Time for an upgrade!
