    so my LTFT's seem to be back in order peaking at about 7 after letting off the throttle and dropping to -2/4 as I open up

    still only reading -10psi boost at idle

    also when I went WOT I had the engine throw me a code for a misfire in cylinder 3 just replaced all my plugs to one heat range cooler for the pulley
    probably shouldnt be messing with WOT till its tuned for them was my assumption but I'm thinking ill replace the wires anyway unless that would be extreme

    in either case would the low psi at idle suggest a blown SC or LIM or UIM.

    in my search for leak I went around all of the sc gasket and no increase in idle produced
