Thanks Jak for the input. I was just kidding around with my earlier post, I wasn't trying to bust on you at all. Originally I did appreciate your advice and was really scared about what you had said for awhile. But obviously the car has done fine and is still running great. I have been easy on it over the those miles though. I mean I hit 1.5 BAR every day numerous times, but I'm usually shifting right around where it leans out at 3300 rpms. I'm not running the engine to 5000 with a lack of fuel, THAT would be stupid!
So it looks like the 30's will be what I'll go for. And just for curiosity, what should I expect as far as miles per gallon with the 30's? As of now the car consistently gets 25 mpg, that's no matter what I do (crazy huh?). I've driven entire tanks ultra-convservatively and barely hitting boost at all, and driven other tanks pulling hard boost and running the car hard, no matter what I do... it always comes out at 25 mpg, weird.
Anyway, thanks for the input Jak and everyone else!
