your on the right track, it can't be told that there is no boost. but under normal driving conditions, it's not dumping mad amounts of gas either, unless you have it set that way. it's at it's leanest under 4k, the way most people set it up. so, that should be normal daily driving. the only times i've had trouble with the way the car acts is under is when trying to run higher rpm's out of boost. for example, not down shifting, but letting the car build slowly in the gear your in, kind of feels slugish. but, down shift and it's fine. i'm personally still getting a little hesitation about 5k in first gear, but i think it's from still running too rich. i'm leaning mine out slowly, trying not to fuck anything up.
