    Why rag at 11-12 boost he should be running more than 200whp. Hell at 6psi I was running 256whp.

    This is what I ran at 12psi in a KA.

    Cool read the post he was running 9 pounds on a stock turbo t25 which with those mods is about 200 whp on an sr. Stock sidemount and all. M3 is pushing more than that to the wheels and the weight difference isnt that substantial.

    Also 6psi flowing a shitload more cfms than a t25 on a t3/t4 on a 2.4 with different stroke than an sr, there is no comparison. That doesnt even make sense to do.

    Post the vid if you have it.

    I did read the post and still believe he should be running more than 200 whp at 9psi. Even so, I will yield and ask for his dyno sheet to see. I thought he would be in the 220ish range, which is still quite a bit less than the E54 at 280-290 whp.

    As far as my 240 yeah it was a 2.4 and t3/t04 and could boost to 18-19. Stock internals but a whole lot of other shit.
