Is that when you just put chickenwire on the inlet of the turbo? I see some people do this or just nothing at all. It'd suck to have a junebug get sucked right into it.

Going faster at the drag strip is one thing, but doing stuff you would normally not do just to EXAGERATE a number (aka DYNOQUEEN) is another. If you are going to drive around with the sock on most of the time, what are you going to say if you lose a race, "let me pull off my sock". Excuses like that are rice. Saying "you beat me now but when i get (insert whatever mod you thing you need).........I'll kick your ***" is rice.---> (very similar to let me pull off my sock)
My feelings exactly! I like your thinking!

I think you would always want to dyno tune
it the with the leanest setup (sock off)
So when you put the sock on it would run a little rich.
If you tuned it with the sock on then run it with it off
you could run lean. Right?

Regardless of the dyno method controversy now raging.....nice numbers. It's on the higher side for 5PSI.
