9lbs of Boost on the Ralliart not 19!!!!!!!!!!(TTP engineering)

Believe what u want but i believe on an earlier post people were saying that the RA makes 19lbs of boost and i installed a boost gauge yesterday.... and it spikes at only 9lbs of boost which leaves plenty of room for more power

ya even when Mitsu says its running 17.9 PSI from factory, maybe guage isnt set up right???

EDIT: maybe I should say isnt reading correctly for some reason???

19 psi on a stock car is absolutely ridiculous and a waste. dont see why Mitsu would do it.....it may feel like its pulling a lot of boost but its not i feel just the same as my cuz's gti which is a 2.0T and it had 9psi stock. I trust our work and the gauge.

So it would come down to how much boast our turbos can handle? I can't remember what TTP said? Did they mention what boost they were pushing?

Boost is above at least 11 for most of the RPM range and does come close to 19 on there charts as the max.

first of all making power on the ralliart was never the problem. the problem is the tranny. sure u can probably make 450 hp but your tranny wont handle it so whats the point.

i also find it hard to believe its only running 9 lbs
