    OK so ive been wondering why my cam'd 3.2 setup GTP was only running a best of 14.05@101mph at the track. NOW BE NICE IM A 3800 newb and new to BOOST. Even after a headgasket and header install my friends and I failed to notice the BBV was capped off. (pics below) We noticed this when we were finishing up welding up my OBX headers this weekend. In the first pic below you can see the 2 inch little rubber hose with a screw in the end of it plugging it up. I think my buddy did this when I first bought the car and tried putting my ported throttle body on it. I took the rubber hose off and its a whole new animal. However Im gonna be safe and take it easy until I can scan it for knock and re-tune.


    WRONG

    RIGHT
