I had taken my car to the dyno with the DRAG III kit on it and only pulled 149.5 horses at the wheel. After posting a few threads here, it was decided I needed more fuel, so I installed the inline FP. I am going to the dyno tomorrow to see where I am at now. I didn't notice a major gain by putting the inline in. My question is will wheel size effect HP results. I am running 17" rims. I know when driving it takes more to turn the wheel, but I wasn't really sure if that affected the HP. Can you please let me know if this would cause the HP reading to go down and should I put the stock rims back on for the dyno run?

I also want to add that this forum is great. Everyone is very helpful with answering questions, especially when I ask a dumb one.

Yeah man I would def put the stock rims back on.

The wheels will only make a small difference in wheel hp. There's no reason to change back over to stockers. 148whp is very low for a drag kit. Did you make sure you have all the vacuum lines hooked up properly. do you have a boost guage? how much boost where you reading? Any i/c piping leaks?

We have been checking for vacumm leaks but haven't found any. I am going to check the I/C piping before I go, but as far as I can tell they are all fine. On an average I hit 5 to 6lbs of boost, but when the car shifts from 3rd to 4th it hits 7lbs for a split second and goes back to 6 lbs. I have tightened the wastegate spring down almost as much as I can.

I will check the I/C piping like you guys suggest and I will let you know what the dyno run looks like after I do that. Thanks for the suggestions everyone has supplied.
