I'm darn sure Im no smarter than you 🤪 but my theory is that above 75 mph the pressure on the bladder from drag is enough to exceed the capability of the air supply to maintain required pressure OR there's a constant low pressure which only trips the alarm above speeds of 75mph. Just trying to think outside the box ... be nice if you could get it up on a ramp and spray soapy water on bladder and pressure lines and even better if you could get the front bumper off to get better access. Its an interesting problem even though its a major PIB for you! Ill try and find parts listing to see where the hardware runs ...

The physical differences between 77 and 78 would not be significant enough to cause the failure (again repeatedly) - no?

Good luck !

Just got the car back on Friday after a busy first two weeks of ownership. I added a Kline 76MM race exhaust, Tial intercoolers, BMC filter and some love from Sam (who is honestly one of the easiest people I have ever worked with) to get the 91 map dialed in. I am hoping to have some time to test out the 100 map here this weekend and trying to resist the urge to jump up to stage 4 (for now). I also added a set of .2 RS side skirts, some more efficient tint and had the stock wheels powder coated gloss black to provide some more contrast against the GT Silver exterior. The car has been a blast and I am looking forward to getting some more time behind the wheel to really enjoy it!
We do have twins now, since you did the black wheels. I bought a spare set in black a while back.
Great weather here today. Mid 70’s. I flogged the turbo for about two hours on back roads after dropping my daughter at a birthday party. I absolutely love this car. The Kline sounds soooo good! This is car 41 for me. I think this is the keeper I never thought existed!
Added Zunsport front grills a few weeks ago.
Changed the terrible throttle boot and replaced with a beefier 2019 part. Kept popping off due to extra boost.
Changed crest to silver.
Changed center caps to black/silver.
Finally got my gloss black emblems, need to put them on.
Took some pics.

New gloss black window trim from Suncoast. I had ordered these when I first got the car because the mirrors have the optional gloss black paint and it looked unfinished with the matte black.
I was hesitant to to it because of having to pry the interior part off and possible damage to the leather or the LCA wires. The Install was super easy and took all of five minutes to do both sides.
My other project did not turn out well. I replaced the stone guard on the passenger side. Lined it up right. I washed my hands well and then washed them with pure alcohol and I still left fingerprints all over. ordering more for a do over.
