Re: Turning my quest into a dsm.

Don't get too carried away with the boost. It's hard enough to run 20+psi of boost on pump gas with DSMs at 8.5:1 or 7.8:1, and often when you can, you have to pull out so much timing that it makes the same power it did at less boost. A DSM is not an Evo and a Starquest is not a DSM. Evos heads, pistons, combustion chambers were designed to handle 19psi stock on pump gas, DSMs only needed to handle around 12psi.
