Message	the same power at lower boost levels - it is safer all around .. 18psi on stockers versus 14psi on larger turbos ( once again assuming that the lag is not unliveable with ) is easier on the EGT / minimizes detonation issues / less aggressive timing is needed / less aggressive a/f is needed / race gas is not needed / etc. I rarely run more than 19psi in my Z even though I can run up to 26psi on race and water injection. Anything over 450rwhp on the street is not something that you will use daily. It's kind of like karate lessons .. nice to have the power IF u need it ... =============Sig begins here================ The Devils Z.com "How the hell would you have gotten on the track had you not *somehow* purchased a ticket?
