Ok I'm lost, and need some help. My car started overboosting to about 24psi when I put on my test pipe. I now have full ETS intercooler pipes, intake, and a hallman MBC. No matter what I set my hallman to (currently have the soft spring in with it unscrewed all the way out) but my car still refuses to get off 24 psi.
Anybody know a fix?

Everyone is saying I won't need it, so I guess we'll see what I can do without it and just stick with my non-cdi.
As for my plugs, they are 8's currently and yea I bought the iridium tipped ones, and gapping was a ***** on em, so I just put em in. I haven't had any blowout even when gapped pretty large. I may swap back to copper though and push it down to where everyones saying I should go. (.20)
*edit*
On that note, anyone have some copper plugs?

Like I said its a peace of mind that you dont have any misfire issues when running that kind of power...
Pepboys and meyers has them too.
yeah iridium plugs can be teadious gapping. ive tried the other temp plugs but i always find myself going back to the og bpr7es copper plugs. this last set i even left the gap wide open on them .028 boosting 29-30psi without issues. Also i havent tried the iridiums on my own car yet, and i have a non cdi cop ignition

if you start making another 100-200whp you might run into blow out though. Who else in town is making 600+ whp and not running a box?

get 8. that way you have 4 as back up. Copper FTW!!
go with a mbc. If you are goign to be running e85 and a single boost level all the time its the best to go with.
