So is Dinan on some of his signature hi boost vehicles...

Sorry if this is a bit OT. Paul, we've already talked about this buddy
Yes you and others here run 10+psi on US motors but how many of you do regular 150+mph or top speed runs?. Not just once or twice a year but once or twice an hour while flying down the Autobahn on the way to the Nurburgring, where you'll be at WOT for ~9mins and hit over 130mph many times?!?. US cars don't see the same kind of use as the Euro ones and can therefore be 'tuned' closer to the ragged edge.
