I had a 06 previously with 170whp that would trap consistent 150's in the 1/4. this is a serious step up no doubt. good thing the new ones can be dialed in all through the stock ECU...boost level included. i can set boost by gear. so gears 1 thru 3 can be limited to 2 or 3lbs til the tire bites then the top gears i can open it up to 8 or 10lbs.
you're right. giant piles of trash!
