I will post the codes as soon as I can.
The hoses are all intact I made sure I got that ***** in there good. I think it is just an over boost issue, i sure hope anyway.
Rob, I wansn't wide open thats why i was shocked I was only around 60-70.

The only change you've done is the intercooler which isn't unheard of. I've seen people have harder times hitting boost target after bigger intercooler installs or over boost because of stock style intercooler like the Perrin is but flows way better. Just email Eric and tell him what happened. I had my car over boost twice when I was stage 2, once with COBB OTS and once with TP. He got me set up after a couple revisions even though I was scared to WOT after the first time because i thought I blew my motor lol.

Is anyone interested in buying some NGK One Step Colder spark plugs? I will be ordering some from my work cost is $6.33 per plug (need 4) plus shipping (~$7 we split 50/50) and tax on top.
Also does anyone recommend a Defi Gauge setup? Looking to buy a boost, oil temp, AFR gauges but not sure which Defi models to get.

I like the big gauges but it depends on where you're putting them. The 52's are plenty big in most places.
Exhaust Gas Temp... was that what you were asking?
I'd decide on where you're gonna mount them and then pick a size.

Unless you get the Racer series which are all stand alone units.
