When is the next protune

I know I miss the one thats coming up this weekend with PDXTuning, but I think I need a protune for my car. I have an 07 STi stage 2 cobb turboback with cat, K&N drop in filter, and a Walbro 255 fuel pump. Been running PDX custom e-mail cobb AP map. I should be hitting around 18 to 19 psi but today when going home I tried to see how the car was running. So I went WOT and the car took off. As I was flying (back road no cars) I look down at my boost gauge and saw 22 PSI. The Boost Creep got me. I did it again got to about 20 psi and I said ok I'm done. I know the 07 are known for this and the only way to fix it is a protune. So I would like to know when is the next protune. I heard that AMS is come this summer and if can I would like to sign up for it.

from what i read, the 07 sti has a smaller restrictor pill in the stock boost management system, which causes the 07 to be more prone to boost creep with a turbo back exhaust... try searching more on that, sorry i dont have any fixes for ya.

true you need a restrictor pill from the 04-05


BTW we might be brining AMS back out not 100% yet

Ok I change the restrictor pill to the larger 1.2mm pill. Reset the ECU I'll give a week or two to let the ECU learn so far only hitting around 15 psi at WOT.
