    When I get into boost I start to hear a crackling noise when on the acceleration.

    Re: APR Software

    Thanks for the help I will try the 7's and see if that fixes the problem. I plan on going K04 when I have the funds available.

    Re: APR Software

    ^^OP what are ur mods u are @ a distinct disadvantage to running without pinging without an intercooler and turbo/catback exhaust. The sparkplugs will help a bit but look to supporting mods too in the future. Gud luk.
