When we made the 1520 RWHP, we disconnected the WG and plugged it..... she pegged the map sensor at 60 psi so it may have been more. We were also spraying it.

Basically the motor was coming out anyway so we did some tests to make it fail to learn some things about failure points of the engine.

Then when they started the dyno run they said, OK everybody stand back.

I've got the dyno video of that car on my computer. My dog was in the room when the video started, and once it hit boost...Man, that high pitched noise of the turbo sent my dog haulin' *** out of my room with its tail between its legs and crying the whole way. Very impressive car, indeed.
