I'm glad yesterday is over! I had more problems yesterday than any one should have in a year.  lets see at one point my waistgate came  undone leaving me with no boost. then in the burn out box my gas pedle got stuck, and I had to shut down, and when it was all sead and done I couldn't make more then 10psi. I had a best of 10.9 for the hole night and most the night was spent in the low 11s. that's slower than when it was stalk. I need to make a new boost controller, this one isn't  bleeding out enough boost away from the waist gate. I may go out again next wekend.

What style boost controller are you using? A bleed style of ball-and-spring style?

Ive never had a problem like that with a ball-and-spring.
