also: how are you sure that the tuning to the SDS is right since you never tuned it on the dyno? Can you read somehow if the value yoou put is right almost right or completely wrong?

I'm using an A/F meter to tune it on the road. It's not perfect, but it's close. I'm trying to get a hold of a wideband O2 sensor to make final tweaks to make sure everything is accurate.

As a result of my never ending search for power, I have concluded it's time to start looking for stronger CV joints. This set lasted only 1.5 months @ 14/20psi (91octane/103octane) boost =).







Let's see how long the next set lasts...

what happened to teh CV joints? Even if tehy are worn you can stil drive. Do they broken?
Only 1.5 months? Do you use the newer one from the Turbo S. They are stronger than tne older one.

It's winter, it's the melting snow. I actually washed it the day before. In the summer, the car is dusted daily (California Duster), washed weekly, waxed monthly, power polished twice a year. I do keep good care of my car, honest! =)

We have upgraded CV joints and axles for the 944 turbos and the rest of the 944 line as well. They are roughly 40% stronger and a bit lighter too. Give me a call to order them up. <img src="graemlins/bigok.gif" border="0" alt="[thumbsup]" />

I am not in the office this weekend so I can't give you a price. I should be available Monday on the phone or you can wait for a reply here. Talk to you soon.
