This afternoon I adjusted the bowden all the way (with the nut toward the tranny) I assume this tightens the cable. It has made no difference in shifting. Didn't take the slack out of the cable either. When I shift manually the shifts are firm yet smooth, no bang no flare. Shifted manually it is taking 16 sec. to get to 60mph. Do I have boost or not? Tried to get a pressure gauge today on ebay and failed. I'll have one soon. Would additional boost have any effect on shifting?


Thanks for the help.

GSXR- I'll send that to you tonite.
