Ok, I'm at 5500 feet and I boost 24 psi and it tapers to 19-20 usually... no boost leaks anywhere!

Weren't you the guy that couldn't figure out why you were only trapping 111mph on a Green and E85?

I had the same problem with my Green/E85 setup. Was lifting the head and pushing coolant out of the overflow. Boost would fall off about 5-6psi, but still managed to trap over 120mph.

Try this on for size...

I'm spiking to 28.5psi (According to my JDM Map sensor calibrated for 6300ft) and by 7300 rpm, I'm down to 17psi. All this on the 9 turbo.

I'm beginning to think I may have gasket issues or something. I do however have the same compression all across the cylinders.

Yeah so was mine and I trapped 120 lol....you got it all wrong lol. You are a touchy one...and arguing with big time shops when you drive a 12 sec. car is comedy at best. i dont know you or care to know you ...but I'm the dumbass....I have enough sense to know that all cars are different regardless of make and model. 11.6@120 on the stock VIII turbo....I was hitting your numbers tuning with a sorry *** afc lol.

The man does make a point lol^^^...I talked to Brian at FP and he pulled my green apart and said it was an early model that had been clipped...probably the reason i wasnt getting the boost I shouldve. The car would have gone 125+ had that not been the case and had it been fully dialed in...which is on point for a stock head and block green powered car with no manifold porting and very mild cams. the red will undoubtly yield 130 traps if I dont toss a rod thru the block first lol
