I've never been into high HP dyno numbers Dave. The torque is where it's at. It's constantly pulling 18 Psi + now and I'd suggest making both more HP and torque than the dyno graph which has max boost at approx 16psi. Last night with 25 degree intake it felt like the proverbial freight train. Just so strong throughout the rev range.

plent more to be had without spending a fortune
Seems the car is developing more boost on its own Dave. It regularly shows 18.5Psi on the data scan. That's a 9% increase over the dyno boost maximum.

Having said that mine is running the least amount of boost possible, with the WG fully open it won't do less than 17psi.

I do wonder how long it would last with 24psi though
Although I know you can't directly apportion an increase in boost to power/torque figures but if you did I'm pushing approx 9% more boost so that could translate to approx 260Hp/405Nm.

Last night travelling home from the basketball it certainly felt like those sort of power/torque numbers. Simply awesome shove in the back on boost which just kept on going. 25 degree intake temps helped I'm sure.
