keep in mind guys with a 5200ft elevation his number will be no were close to what most people run. and i am sure his corrected altitude is worse than 5200ft
(makes his own air)He shouldnt be much slower, atleast not like a n/a 500ft vs n/a at 5200ft. May be slower, but shouldnt be by much. Thats one of the beauties of forced induction

6000 would be way too much for a stock car. The problem is that with stock valves springs the extra 4 lbs of boost on the valves reduces the amount of delta spring pressure to control the valve properly. With it being that the springs already (typically) have lost some of there spring rate as it is, the problem only worsens. 5000 is probably past the limit or right at it.

Hell Ive been wrong befor lol.
If his diverter valve is 4 psi and its making more then 4psi, wouldnt it not be affected?
Its probably more complicated then that. Whatever, chalk that one up as talking out of my ***

Thats what i was afraid of. The car stilll felt strong at 5k rpm.
Not that this would be my first choice of action on my car considering there are 1000million things i could do first and be more beneficial, but would the AFR "Hydra rev" thing aid this? Or is that something completely off base.
