Default Finally..........Boost again!!!!!!!!!!

Well, Guys I just got my car up and running last night. Job jr came down from Turbo People to tune so we decided to make a run on the Cross Island exiting on the belt parkway going west, with the first run I was only getting 3~4lbs of boost. (A hose was loose) After that minor adjustment. we cranked up the AVCR to 1bar and decided to continue the tuning. Of course we are tuning on some back roads leading toward the Cross Island Parkway. I was told to shift from 1st to second and then gradually ease in on the gas, I did and the torque was so much that the tires started to break loose. the power feels good, but almost instantly I heard a loud explosion.......... I broke my flex pipe. , took it back to the shop, they corrected the problem but the tuning session ended prematurely, because there were other cars to tune, So I will have to reschedule a session with Job jr. Travelling home after that yielded a very large grin on my face, indeed, after several years of not having boost. I can surely attest to the fact that Boost is infact Beautiful!
