When talking to the guy's @ AA,they indicate that this turbo is only capable of 17-18lbs of boost,awful funny we just set a record on my brother's EVO with 411hp & 400.3ft-lb of torque to the wheels on his stock 16g turbo,& it spiked @ 26lbs,& tapered off down to 22-23lbs of boost before it became inefficient around 5500rpm's.
