ultra rich tune?.... i heard 10.8 was like insane

hmm I thought i was in the end of the safe zone at 7.75psi.

hmm that makes me wanna go to 10psi then...and run like 14 on 110 leaded

SC and turbo boost is different. I think 9-10psi is max for turbo.

Phil-

I sent ya a PM a while back asking about compression ratios mentioning 2mm I thought, you must have answered then disregarding that part since you don't run it.

or...... I'm just simply dead wrong ....which has never happened

.....turbo can't run equivalent boost?

Why might this be?

I'd think the tune could be done to match....and the air would be just as cold? Trying to think what the problem would be.

what's the issue? anyone?

I'd love to kick my boost from 7.5psi up to 12-13psi
