We have a friend in Loveland that tunes the Power FC. That's not too far from you, not as far as Denver anyway.
Also we have another friend that lives up there and makes it down this way every now and then, maybe you could drive along with him sometime. He drives a really nice Audi A4 now though, not a Mazda anymore. Actually he's moving soon too I believe, so you better make it quick lol.

That almost sounds like the pills in the actuator hoses, but it wouldn't just start doing that unless you swapped the hoses and didn't put pills or the correct size jets in there. And it lets off at 7psi.

How about he drives it out here and we can all take a look at it.
Mine had low boost for a while till I figured out my second turbo was not engaging. The flap in the second turbo Y pipe solenoid wasn't working properly. I took mine out and everything was good and was reaching full boost when I had the twins.

Which turbo is the primary and which is the secondary?

I don't know the owner, but I know that there is a couple that owns a takumi 86 and they run a small import company. The 86 is the promo car and the FC you see is one of their clients. You should check out the NationWide meets, both cars are regulars at them, especially when the weather gets nicer.

Cool, I bought my FD in Littleton back in 2004 when I lived in North Carolina and now I'm back in CO, since 2008.
What's up? Good to see another owner here. We have been getting a lot of people moving into town. Did you just get here? I'll PM you my number so we can keep in touch and you can meet up with us.

[QUOTE=speedjunkie;11419252]So you were at the drift event in early March? And I don't remember, yours is the Red Suns FC right? If so, I saw it there.

Yeah? Even then I still have this problem of it wanting to run stupid rich at idle. Hunts sometimes 10s-low 11s in the AFRs. Not much fun only getting 150-ish miles per 18 gallons either.... Lol driving it nice the whole time.

Yes you can put a Power FC on an S4. I have one in my garage with pretty much what you just described. 350-400 RWHP street car. I'll PM you and we'll get together and chat.
