Those numbers are insanely low. My friend benji's 50trim kit made 395 awhp on pump gas 22psi. And that was on the conservative side. But then again 22psi is still out of that turbo's efficiancy. Good luckon the way home. The mid west really isnt as bad as it seems...lol, its better in the spring. i promise

Well, I'm talking with them now in texts and I guess they seem to be having alittle trouble with the car. From what he said :" When boost builds slowly the blowoff valve opens and it doesnt hold the boost" So I told him to mash it a few times!..lol

Alright well, he just said its not holding boost when he goes WOT..so I'm guessing/hoping he is turning around.


EDIT:: Okay, so when they go WOT in 5th + 6th gear, the bov is opening/closing I guess and the car is dropping boost. They are 20miles from the next exit, are going to get off and take a look at it. Going WOT in 4th it doesnt do it hah
