What I do know is that 40.5psi from a 75mm turbo is a fair amount of power. Enough to trap almost 156mph on the 1/4 mile anyway. I'll be going back on the dyno soon to try another couple of ideas I have, and probably more boost. It's at the point of diminished returns now though, we're almost out of compressor and I believe the turbine is starting to choke now also. We'll be fitting a larger turbo in the off season I think. Still sticking with the Series 5 engine/intake (TII) at this point.
Good job, oh and nice mullet
