alright, i know its not cougar related, but on my 91 eclipse gst, stock turbo PSI is 8 pounds, according to DSM that pushes 202hp at 5000rpm. I am currently running 15psi, and i am trying to figure out where my HP is sitting at off of a guess, can anyone help me out? thanks

That depends on many factors.

"Boost" is only an "gauge reading" of how restrictive your intake & heads are. (exhaust plays a part too)

You could have a very low efficiency setup and running 15psi and actually be flowing less cfm then a high efficiency setup (of the same size of course) at 10psi.


BTW - 1G DSM'S (TD05-14B) are 10psi.

So if 10psi (~370cfm) = 205 HP
Then 15psi (~430 cfm) = roughly 250HP
