    Will be interested to see the results. Same guy that did the new Regal/EDS inlet manifold. He's also working on a heat resistant complete pod enclosure.
    I been looking at these too. will be interesting on what the final result is. Loving the new intake manifold too.

    I installed a boost gauge on the weekend...

    To my surprise i'm getting a reading of 15psi at full throttle.

    I'm starting to think the car has had the computer tuned at some stage before i owned it? How can i be sure if the computer has be tuned? Or is the gauge giving me a faulty reading?

    I havn't driven another stock SRi-T so i dont know what stock feels like.

    I didn't have a boost gauge when mine was stock but I'm pretty sure the stock tune significantly limits boost in top gear especially so check for that.
    Also, you could gently check what your rev-limiter is set to - Stock is 6800RPM for 3seconds then back down to 6500RPM. A tune could have changed that to just about anything of course...

    Btw, is that 15psi constant or peak? Anyway, those are a couple of quick things you could check for easily.
