Default I dont know about you guys but the only time my car is below 3000 rpm is when

I turn it on. driving around I'm at around 3500 or so anyway so it doesnt seem like this will be an issue.

are you guys driving around at 2000rpm or something? i cant imagine thats much fun.

Closer to 260 whp if the dyno is setup to show a 22% drive line loss.

Default Driving, yes. Racing, no.

Plus if you want power you just down shift and get into the power band again.

Default well i was speaking from a professional standpoint in terms of hardware

MOST places if you buy a "hardware" kit (places like ATP, AWE, innovative turbo, etc...) you do not get fueling. MAF and injectors are seen to fall into the fueling kit catergory. sorry i didnt make myself clearer.

I can understand your point in saying that the software i have wont be had by others. But I do believe my car to be a good representation of what the PES kit can do. whether or not GIAC/PES wants to revamp their software to be up to my level is up to them. Its very doable.

Oops - wrong heading, I'll repost here: how much does it cost to upgrade 3 to 3+?

Default MBC set to 21 PSI in order to combat the lost 2 PSI from the intercooler...

I also have a 3 inch test pipe. other than that it was the regular off the shelf 1.5 bar PES street software. The car had about 96 octane in it 1/2 100 octane and 1/2 93. Like I said, NO race software. I have the dyno graph on my comp...just dont know how to up-load it.

Default So that means your running the turbo at 2psi higher then the 1.5 bar chip

which is nearly 1.65 bar of boost which would be the reason the hp/tq are higher.
