On road/track testing or dyno?
If dyno, do you have a graph?

hahahah

BAAAA BOOOOOOOWWWW !!

Just say DYNO *keep everybody happy*

what were your revs at this speed? Boost generally drops off a lil at higher revs and higher speeds *with Turbosmart controllers anyways and bleed valves etc*

You have steel wheel turbos right? but not high flow...

hmmm should be able to hold 13 PSI ! ! EASY !

Is the Turbosmart an electronic controller or a manual bleed type?

lol sorry havent be online for ages!
yeah it was ummmmmmm on the track!
yeah its a manual boost controller dual stage but the dual part is hooked up yet! 170 is nothing! u gotta remember we dont have to look out for cops or other people on our roads! just kangaroo's! i know if u people lived here u would do it too! its only by myself anyways
yeah its just drops down its around 170km/h which is bad cos its knocking my quarter mile times down :-(
