went to ovaboost cause my car has been booked in to be tuned at rotos 3 different times now, and everytime they call me and tell the the dyno is broken/not working. and mick said that it might overboost, was planning on running a 14 and 7 pound spring to get 21 pounds, but he said that i might be able to get away with the 14 and a boost t-piece to get close to what i want.
