i doubt i'll ever have the need to put my car above 7psi...it's my daily driver.

i'll be bumping it up to over 400 just for advertising purposes this week. then i'll be putting it back down to around where it is now.
300whp at 8200 isn;t all that impressive, because that means you have little torque. I mean it IS impressive, especially with that amount of boost, but how much torque do you have peak, AND at 8200??

what we lack in torque is also made up in gear ratio. just thought i would throw that in there.

kinda like fat chicks, what they lack in body....they make up for in spirit.

Ya know, now I'm kinda flustered...so your civic has 308 whp, interesting and how much torque does it have...190? Torque is what throws you in the seat and keeps you there man..it wins races. Your civics lack major trq=thus, lacking power!

it dosn;t matter, cooler intake = cooler post blower. The blower will only heat it x degrees, and if it starts cooler, it will end cooler, common sense

My freaking lawnmower has a honda engine.

The gearing can inly do soo much as far as lack of torque, especcially if we have a SHIT load more!!
