well I have some questions
<center><img src="http://pictureposter.audiworld.com/28938/face2face.jpg"></center><p>today at work I had a lot of time on my hands so I researched all possible reasons for why my "stock" S4 is spiking boost at 12psi (about .8 bar). After a little perusing I put a few things together and decided that there might be a possible MBC (manual boost controller) that lies beneath the engine of my car. That could be a possible explanation for the higher boost than stock (8psi). Today my room mate fixed his little G-Tech device and we did a few runs. His 2004 S4 did best 5.07 0-60. I did one run and hit 5.12 0-60.......Comments will be welcome. The list of my performance mods are as followed:
APR Bi-pipe
710N valves
Neuspeed exhaust
RS4 clutch
I've been reluctant to chip the car because I have an extended warranty and would like to utilize it to it full.

An MBC would not raise boost from stock. It can only reduce/limit boost.
.8 bar is not extremely high. My car spiked to 11 psi stock. Boost can vary with climate. On a warmer day you will see higher spikes than you would on a cold day.
