15% question..

Hello,
I was wondering any one else has gotten an overboost condition with the 15% pulley (i.e. over 18Psi) ? I was going threw the gears on the highway and i think it was top of third or fourth and the DSC light came on and did not shut off. I was under the impression that the 15% only made about 14.5 psi give or take. When it happened I had a big grin on my face because I knew I must have been going fast.. lol..

Thanks,
Jm

i don't think it is related to getting 18ibs boost. What tires do you have? Are they new? Road was dry? Are you enjoying it?

What is the air temp when this happens to you? It usually won't happen to me unless I'm in the 30's or less -- Johan
