I do appreciate the link, however.
Another .5psi at sea level coming from 3500 feet seems very realistic and another 10hp on the dyno seems about right mathematically. Could see more with higher octane gas and a more aggressive tune. Again, I'm actually being positive towards the product.
Bov's don't, but waste gates do. I should've been more specific in my reference.
