Well after going some time with my car not building any boost I finally figured out the prolem. THE EXHAUST!! Damn and in the beginning I though that was the problem all along but nobody ever backed me up on it so that went to the back of my head until now when I ran out of things to do. My exhaust is stock down pipe 2.25" to 2.5 Magnaflow performance straight through muffler, then a 90* bend to side exit. Very simple and sounds amazing. Boosting to 12psi 14psi peak. Enough to break the tires loose in 2nd gear.
Here are some picture of the system:

Still playing with tips. I don't know what will look good. I like this one but my dad wants me to recut it the other way. I will get a video of it soon.

My only recommendation would be angling it back some and flushing it with the body. Looks like you could step on it/catch your leg/I dunno.

But much better then stock :thumb:

really since the belt line of the car comes out enought that it would be hard to do it. I mean if you really want to step on it you can but then I would have to smack you.

i wanna try a rectangular lt1 camaro/vette tip flush or slightly recessed on my next one.

my current one has a squarish magnaflow tip flush with body line, looks ok to me. its the same color as my car, 'dirt-burnished'.

Cut it off shorter and use a turndown on it.

I have one of the rectangular LT1 camaro tips on my wagon. I'll take a pic of it this weekend when I go home.
