here is what went down... i had so many people hitting me up... that i had to post this on facebook.

TO ALL THE 150 PEOPLE THAT TEXTED ME YESTERDAY ABOUT HOW MY DYNO SESSION WENT... AND KEEP PESTERING ME ABOUT IT... HERE IT GOES.

I got on the rollers, and apparently the wastegate springs were wrong, so after 3 pulls on the dyno, and disconnecting the boost controller (trying to just go off wastegate pressure)... found out the the boost was way too much that what it was supposed to be. We had to take the car off the dyno, and make changes to the springs. To I had the BLACK, BLUE, and YELLOW springs in there (1.7 bar or 24.99psi) We pulled off the black spring and left the other 2 in there... (supposed to be around 16psi or so.) and had no time to re-dyno... so we had to street tune. On the street tune we noticed that the car was making TOO MUCH boost for just wastegate... so we had to take the car back to the shop and hook up the air compressor to find out that the wastegates were opening up at over 40psi!!! So then we had to remove the wastegates yet another time and just keep the YELLOW spring on there (.5 bar or about 8psi). We applied air pressure and saw that they both opened up at 19-20psi... so we took the car out (at only fu*king MIDNIGHT) and started to finally street tune the car. Not only did this inconvenience me... but it inconvenienced my friends, my tuner, and I wasted money on a dyno!!!

Dear TiAL Sport... I really hate you right about now. According to your website... your MV-S wastegate springs BLACK, BLUE, and YELLOW are supposed to equal 1.7 bar or 24.99 psi... Just so you know... ITS NOT! I FOUND OUT THE HARD WAY!!!

IF I HAD LOST MY MOTOR DUE TO THIS... i PROBABY WOULD OF CRIED... THEN GO APE**** ON SOMEONE... I DONT KNOW WHO... BUT SOMEONE!
