Message I went to the track last Wed. and got a best mph of 113 running at 17-18 psi of boost. Then, turned up the EVC to 18-19 psi, went back on Friday and best mph was 117. It was a tad bit cooler on Friday too... (it was like 85 instead of 88 degrees). It seems like such a big difference in mph for such a small change in boost pressure... 1 psi typically equates to 10-15hp, right? Is that estimate on stock turbo efficiency? Could it be that because my upgraded turbos are more efficient so that 1psi would be closer to 20hp?
