    Acceleration issues

    Hey guys I'm having a problem with my car switched to E85 about a week ago and all has been well but while driving to work today the car suddenly had a drop in power and will only hit around 1psi of boost.

    Next mod?

    E85 tune or catless downpipe? Already have an intake, premium tune, test pipe and zzp catback exhaust and don't know what to go with next.

    Exhaust cut out?

    Has anyone installed an exhaust cut out right after the the flex pipe or a similar setup? I thought I read about this somewhere but cant find it.

    A pillar replacement?

    I just saw the dual gauge pod for the cruze so I'm curious if one will be made for the sonic? I like the idea of a completely stock looking one not the cheap ebay crap.

    Boost change at 3k rpm

    Today I got bored when driving around so I did some 3rd gear pulls while accelerating, its about 100 degrees out but the car would boost and sound steady but around 3k rpm it sounded like the bpv was opening up and it sounded like it wasn't boosting as much? Then the car felt a little weaker but...
