Thanks for the reply Snake. I have a couple of other questions maybe you might know the answers. I haven't raced the SVO yet because I just bought it from my sister this fall. I havent messed with the turbo cars before. I have 5.0's that I race as a primary race cars, the SVO is my street car. I'm having a problem with boost, with the switch in regular position the car runs fine 9 PSI of boost but in the premium position it surges from 12 to 16 PSI real bad. If I ease into it, its not so bad but if I hammer it really surges. It feels like the wastegate is moving freely. I'm not sure what electronic device actually controlls the wastegate but it seems to me that this would be the culprit since it doesn't do it in regular position. I thought maybe it was to lean but the plugs look good. I didn't know if this might be a common problem with SVO's as they age or if mine is the only one. The other question is about the headlights got any suggestions on making them look like new again and not so yellow? Any ideas would be appreciated.
Thanks Jim
