[urq] RS2 Update

[Brandon Rogers]

so Jim - are you going to turn up the wick at all?  15 psi should be a 
breeze for that turbo - I guess it's fuel you gotta watch, tho, ehh.  Where 
does the boost fall off?  I'm assuming it makes better power than K24 
because it's not working as hard - plus I'm assuming it pulls deeper into 
the rpm band...
