geez guys
just tryin to be helpful!
guess i can't do anything right.
guess compression would only get messy if you slapped on a huge fmic as opposed to one that's smaller and easier/ quicker to compress volume of air thru.

I love you too! People like you posting replies to things you have no idea about. I am also not upset, in fact I do agree with you that you sounded like a dumb ***, and it's cool that you acknowlege that fact. I will also admit that there have been times in my life and will continue to be times in my life where I have and will sound like a dumb ***. I am just trying to get the point across, that you may want to do a little more research on a subject before you post. It's good that you are enthusiastic about helping people but honestley read your first post, and tell me what about it helped the thread starter? Sorry to the starter of this thread, i know that i may have not contributed anything to you for the effort of repairing your problem. I have no idea what could be causing it.

Then i put on the up and down pipe and ran a 14.5 and a slower 0-60 with these parts on it. i cant be loosing boost due to a leak because i put a boost gauge on and it is at 1.1 bar. Any ideas, is my bov opening early, cause its not as loud i dont think, but if it is opening early is it possible to still be 1.1 bar.
Thanks alot.

Thanks alot.

If you had an uppipe leak you would probably hear it. Please list all mods, because i don't think you can hit 1.1 bar with the uppipe/downpipe, catback and BOV.

i dont know why people have to flame you your just stating your opinion.
The reason i was getting a slower time has to be cause i must have been shifting later and over spooling the turbo. this topic should be closed.

Well, for one thing, this bumped thread is more than 8 months old! 
Besides the suggestions already mentioned in previous posts...
In-car timers just aren't as accurate or consistent as a real drag strip.
Acceleration times aren't indicative of an increase or decrease in power when you are only talking about a few tenths. ¼-mile E.T.s can vary by that much even at a real drag strip. The MPH is a better indicator of power and doesn't vary as much even with inconsistent standing starts.
