Let this be a lesson to us all. Make sure your gauges are working properly. He could well have blown his engine trying to figure out why it wouldn't go past 16psi while in reality it could have been pushing 20psi or 30psi...

Or a great tip for a 'sleeper' walkover at the next Buschur Shootout. Show everyone you are 'just' running 16 psi then lay down 700 whp. Who knows Dave might not see that coming. You might even get a run in before he closes the dyno after testing the Buschur cars.
 

Holy smoke! Always the weird stuff that causes these situations. I am glad that you are sorted. Better weird than complex and expensive!
 

Has somebody been listening to the top 40 while wrenching? /ubbthreads/images/graemlins/rofl.gif
