    technically he should still be pushing 10 psi or so, but i think he has a hidden restriction somewhere in the sytem. i also dont get how youd get boost over what out MAP sensor can even adjust for without knocking.

    i thought headers dropped boost, due to decreased manifold pressure??

    anyway turbo rsx's are still in the 13-14's range in the 1/4, so nice kill
