Re: S4 boost and SPORES



 Had a great time drifting 4 at Lime Rock, especially with the properly
working IA3 ECU which now puts out 19PSI/2.3BAR peak, and can hold 15-~18
steadily!  Finally learned enough (newbie) to get to 5800RPM in 3rd at the
track out point into the final straight, for ~115MPH reached in the straight!

I'm still concerned about having driven with the ECU not sensing boost
because of a vacuum line to the condensor being off. Found it out when boost
gauge installed and read zero! Did this cause a lean condition, since there
was boost? anything I should do to clean up any potential probs, other than
the techron and new platin plugs recently put in?

Front pads are nearly toast, especially after some SPORE (spastic person on
rental equipment (from my prior ski instructoid years)), car variety, pulled
out suddenly in front of me going ~55 on the green mountain autobahn, causing
the best darn emergency brake and pray I've had, even better the the bull
moose episode last winter!! The joys of having all those undergrads on the
highways again, ayep.
