I have the boost controller bypassed right now (Damon did it) because it will only hold 18.5psi anyways (I have to get the HKS actuators installed--- live and learn). The gauge is the water temp and I really do not have any concerns with that for 3 runs. I just did it for fun and to get a base to build on. I appreciate your concern for the car, I know you have had your hands dirty with the car as well as Damon. I would never do anything to risk that car.
