Sorry to sidetrack this line of discussion, but I found my problem! I guess 32psi was too much for this turnbuckle, which holds the rear of the plenum to the chassis. So I had a size-large boost leak, and it can be addressed without major effort - yippee - kai - yai - yay. No engine rebuilding, no engine swapping, whew.
32 psi....Yowza!!

Yea it is dean, it's the fender rubbing model.
I still have my turbo busa and it is tuned good enough to run WFO but i just don't have the $$$ to drive up entry fees etc.My friend went through my bike and found lots of issues. They are all sorted but he is working on getting it more driveable on public roads.
We would love to come to the lobster feast?
I've lost 50 lbs in the last 1 1/2 years.

Here's some directions I copied from 2009, via Wolf1397 and Jim. Saved me time for sure.
New Jersey Turnpike
Garden State Parkway
I-287
I-684
I-84
I-90
I-290
I-495
I-95
Expect heavy traffic through Hartford on I-84 during rush hour but it is still normally better than I-95.
to avoid Hartford rush hour traffic, take 691 (exit 27) to 91 north and take the Wilbur Cross over to I84.

You'll be paying a bit more than that in New England 
I'm thinking of putting one bike in the back of the pickup and leaving the trailer at home, it's a PITA but I did the math and it will save over $250. I have a tall truck cap now, so if it fits, it will be secure and out of the elements. Like a minivan!

I can fit the turbo in the back of the truck, and close the tailgate and truck cap, but man it is tight. Someone please convince me to just take the trailer...
