stock turbo:
24psi peak = 260+ load @3200rpm
20psi taper = 220+load @ 7000rpm

98RON...

93 octane, mods in sig. Looking at all your numbers it seems mine is a little high for my boost level? Perhaps i have a leak?

Psi According to my prosport gauge...
22 psi peak = 250 load @ 3500 RPM
20 psi @ redline = 230 load

Could anyone explain the variances/dips in my load graph from 3500-5500 RPM?

But a leaking BOV is not a boost leak, there is no metered air lost, therefore the mas will be seeing the same amount as it would be anyway. I am having difficulty understanding how this could give me a load calculation higher then without a leaking bov. Also I crushed the bov today and will be installing it tonight to see if it made a difference.

Better fix it.

My statement obviously best applies to a VTA setup, so apologies for the confusion.

As for a recirculating type, one would think that it shouldn't be an issue aside from the turbo losing efficiency due to the leak, unless of course the high pressure return stream has a means of disrupting the MAF.

Now we are on the same page Thats why I said I know I was probably overspinning my turbo..I'm putting the crushed MR jdm bov back on now. We'll see if she holds past 25 now
I'm ALMOST tempted to get a tial but I wantto wait and see how their new recirculating valve works first..The only other big boost recirc. opion I can think of is the old school greddy type-r..

I don't want this to go off topic, but I'd forget about the Greddy (won't explain here - but it did not perform to our standards), and consider a Synchronic or Forge RS.

with 24 psi and I'm only hit 260 load cells but I'm only have mbc and tbe. So with something like AEM open intake and cams I should hit higher load cells (and tune of course). Correct?

I'll try to advance some timings to see if the load cells change to higher.

Cam timing or ignition timing? Advancing ignition timing will not change your load.
