The turbo size determines the power output, the engine size determines at what RPM it makes that power. If you want more power, you need a bigger turbo.

Huh. Well. I'm doing the same as my old setup at just 7psi. The old setup was the 370@14-15psi. I havent even started turning it up yet. I don't think 7 psi is even in this turbos efficiency range yet.

If you come up, you just let me know if you wanted to tune a few cars. We could easily set it up. I'm first in line though.

I am going to do everything I can to max out my s480 first. It is an 80/87. The closest track to me is 380 miles away so I only go a few times per summer. I wanted more low end than top end. I'm pretty sure this setup should make some decent power once turned up. I guess I will find out next April when the snow goes away.
