LOL Epic Fail

[Sleeeper X]

So After chipping my car about a week or so after I purchased I was always bitching that my car is slow as hell. So I did a center vent boost gauge and to my amazement my car was boosting 7psi. So I took my car to SSP and got a boost check to find a Leak off my inlet pipe. So I fixed that, Went for another drive, and NOW i'm boosting 9psi. ugh..... So After this I take an SSP tuned ECU and I'm boosting the proper amount. 5mins later I'm boosting 5psi 5! FIVE!!!! Now I'm buying egts on a car with 44K on the clock.

All in all the irony is that I've owned a chipped s4, but I never drove a chipped s4. lol

Haha, sounds like we've all got stories like this. After I got chipped, I turned out of eurosport and started driving away. As I shifted into second, I heard a really loud sound...kind of BOV'ish, but more like air blasting out of the system. I get home and check...yup, torn TBB. Samco to the rescue!!

Yeah it was great when I was doing WOT in 3rd hitting 21 psi and my TBB popped off! Talk about feeling like you hit a wall! That's never a good feeling...

Good luck with your new car tommy!
