Pin grind and more fuel screw

Well I did the fuel pin grind and turned in the fuel screw a bit more( I guess it bottomed out it didn't want to go any further) and now my EGT's are crazy. I can hit 1300 by 75mph and still climbing strong. I don't know which gauge reacts faster boost or pyro. Boost is at 27psi. I do have to dial out some of the afc fuel because its bogging a bit. I can gently roll to full throttle in second and it just smokes the one tire at 35mph. Every time it happens i chuckle because its ridiculous.

Its time for a new turbo I guess. I didn't realize I could run out of air with stock 160s

The full fuel screw doesn't really bottom out--probably a buggered thread either on the screw itself or in the AFC housing. What do you mean by bogging it? Maybe [I]fogging it...either way, it's all over for you. The slippery slope has sucked you down its steep banks. Soon all you'll have left is a dopey smile and empty pockets, hehe. The chuckle when the tires let loose is just the beginning...

Well I completely removed the bad threads on the screw. As far as the bog. With the extra fuel(mucho smoke) down low I noticed slightly more turbo lag.
