2.3 IX, 37r, 600+ whp pump/meth
Makes more power than yours too

J/k Different dynos, go dyno yours in 3rd gear on a dynojet and see what you get.

7Psi higher, I'd hope it would make more power, but for a 2.3 the power under 5k rpm is low IMO. I asked the OP in AIM if he knew what WG spring pressure he was using as well was what MBC he had been using, he was unsure, maybe you can shed some light? Hotside?

I would assume it would spool earlier in the higher gear with the higher load. Most the cars that I've seen, including mine, were dynoed in 3rd gear.
That is a little lazy for the setup. Peak torque(and probably peakboost) at 5600-5700 and because of the stroker only revving to 7500 makes for a 2k powerband. Im sure it would still be fun to drive, but if it were mine, I'd like more than 2k of power.
This is why it may look as if the car is spooling late, it really isnt. If i ran that car in 4th on the dyno you would see a change. If you know your dyno then you can get the results.

I spoke to him regarding this but I think he wants the power of a 37r or bigger turbo. With a 35r, his area under the curve would be amazing but would be limited to around 650whp. Haha I think he's going for 1000whp next

On the dynojet dyno, if you dyno in 3rd vs 4th you get more torque on some cars as it loads the car more, so the car has more time to spool the turbo.
