Curious why the boost falls to 17psi. Surely your turbo can provide more airflow than that. Is the boost controller set to 17 and spikes to 20psi maybe? If it held 20psi I think it would be in the upper 500s for peak power.
That could be, but who knows. I'm sure the fact that I just have a 10lb WG spring doesn't help. Later tonight I can post a snap shot of the log that shows the boost level. Once I want to turn it up more, I'll be adding more springs to the WG which I'm hoping will help keep the boost curve flatter. I have an 11psi and 5psi spring, that can all be added since they are different physical sizes. So if I have all 3 in there, I should be at about 26psi on WG alone, no MBC.
