You may see it hit 5/5/6psi early in the rpm range.Your rwkw figure is normalA lot of tuners supply only their peak power boost figure which is a little misleading. Peak power boost is usually 2-3psi lower than peak boost itself going by what I have seen.<{POST_SNAPBACK}>Very true.Dazza. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thank god for edit, I'll get that I think. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest PSIXR6 Guests Posted 11/03/05 01:24 AM Share Posted 11/03/05 01:24 AM Just had my car on the dyno today, and was quite happy with the results.Car is stock apart from 2nd CAI, Center muffler removed and KnN Airfilter.Had 3 pulls resulting in;191.5kw194 kw193.2 kwAs u can see the boost curve was all over the place, ranging between 4.3 up to 5.6 psi.Fairly healthy donk though, I think.
