That was me , just last month.

 

 

hey guys i got a question for anyone who can answer this . Right now im running 19psi, But i wanted to know if anyone know how much hp do u get for 1lb of boost

 

It depends on how efficient your turbo is at high boost. Generally the rule is 10 hp for every lb of boost. But if your turbo is maxed out then you'll actually lose hp from excessive heat generated by your turbo. Also just be sure you have the fuel to support the increased air flow.

 

I've heard that a rule of thumb is 10 HP per 1 Lb. of boost. But that is too simple because if you have a larger engine like a 5.7 Liter V8 and put it at 6 lbs you can get more than 60 HP gain... a lot more. But for our little engines, that should do.

Why do you ask??? Are you finally going to creep over the speed limit?

 

yeah i though so im going to turn it down to 18 just incase i still have a stock wastegate

 

at 15lbs of boost i was at 230whp and 260 around there i dont remeber to well the torque that was with out my CAI

 

BTW I'm up to 350 whp and that's without cams. heh heh heh.

 

sweet

 

Show off, you should run gtlimer now

 

Heck, I need to find their addresses and check their trash for used performance parts. I'm a poor unemployed boy soon...

 

Yeah, I'll run anybody, win or lose, it don't matter to me.

 

damn....350?? geezus... stock turbo?
