Dependant upon how much boost.....obviously 1 PSI, you will notice approx 10 HP or so.................................8 PSI will prevail even bigger gains on the vehicle. This is kind of a poorly worded question.

Rep Power: 297 yeah, less slow hehe thats about right. with like 6 or 8 psi when you first get in it compared to before, it will be hella fast. A week of driving goes by and then you are looking for 12psi and getting out your life savings to build the motor. It turns into a never ending adventure for most. I love it. Boosting is an addiction hehe. Plan on spending mucho cashola unless you are one of the few that can set it and forget it. Turbo is the replacement for displacement man.

Rep Power: 0 Thats what my turbo shop told me. They said boost is like crack, your always looking for a little extra boost. I hope I can be one of those guys that set it and forget it. I think I'm good at that stuff. If I don't know it I don't touch. My shop said half of the guys that go in there with blown motors are those guys that touch and they F***k stuff up. Can't wait I have a few more weeks.
