I would have run up to 45psi on the dyno (map sensor limit) but the wastegate spring will only allow 40.5psi (280kpa). If the engine is still going when the season finishes I'll probably change w/g springs and see what it makes on 45psi, time permitting. I'm not holding out too much hope though, the engines done almost 2 seasons racing plus 2 powercruise events, dirt drags, and whatever else. I'm glad I didn't switch to E85 yet, pump petrol is starting to get real interesting now!

THIS is fucking insane!!
