in the netherlands we talk about milibars not in psi.
But 5psi is 350milibar and isnt much.

My goal 800milibars and is 12psi with an compression ratio of 9 to 1.
High compression ratio's with relative highboost prevent turbo lags.
But ran closer to nocklevels. Good map work is the key for succes with a good intercooler. My cooling system is allmost orginal, i only changed thermostat to 82 degrees Celsius with a heatchanger under the oilfiltre it will be enough.
