    Are you kidding me guy? You realize it takes power to make power correct? So then you understand the point of diminishing returns also correct? This is the kind of ignorance I see on this board. You don't even understand that in order to make boost it's going to get harder and harder to turn the more the pressure goes up. Just as it takes power to turn the air compressor to cool your car it takes power to make boost. If you don't understand this fundamental fact I suggest you go back to basic physics.
