so now that iv gotten more use to my 944 turbo , i have this problem im driving it and it doesn't feel fast anymore(maybe its just me). this is what i have done to it
1)no muffler just straight pipe back from the cat
2)when i got the car the oxygen sensor was bad so i replaced that (just passed emmissons-finally)
3)put in a cone airfiler in place of the stock airbox
4)and i believe the car has the autothority chips

i have taken her to the drag strip and put down 14.3@102 mph times

THIS IS MY PROBLEM i drive the car through the gears reaching full boost 2+ bar everytime ,but the car feels slower ,it almost make me feel like have a boost leak somewhere ,but i checked every hose,intercooler,etc and everything is air-tight. the car also looses that whistle at full boost . some body help me figure this out, im stuck plus it almost sounds like i have a exhaust leek at full acceleration (which i dont) not a raspy sound just sounds like a a 2005 stock impala at full acceleration.

SOME BODY ?

Youre not boosting at 2+ bars. The middle of the gauge and right is boost. Youre doing 14-15PSI of boost, assuming you DO have Autothority chips.

Well if you really are boosting 2 Bar, I'd say the reason it feels slow because various peices of your engine were blown all over the street.

my mistake when im under heavy acceleration the needle is all the way to the right at the 2 mark ,at the last bar on the right of the gauge

The "1" on the stock gauge is atmospheric pressure (anything less than 1 is vacuum) while the "2" indicates two bars (1 atmosphere + 1 boost).

Most likely, you are just getting used to the car so it doesn't feel as fast.

Exactly. Mine's the same way. Time for a call to Vitesse (once I get some $$$ saved)
