As you know if the charger is sized correctly there's no need for big boost numbers. But how could I argue that with someone that thinks a factory 5.9L can take 120PSI.
I couldn't explain that a HX-55 moves almost double (roughly figured lets not make me do math - if you need to know the exact flow differences see the compressor map ) cfm at 20psi than a hx-35 at 40 to a guy who would just explain to me he had sold plenty of cfm intakes and knows all about them
The only reason my truck made those kind of numbers is I needed plenty of un-burnt fuel and we had it...... I actually think that turbo lives on...Not really sure how???? But since this guy's made 120PSI on a hx35 im sure it'll be fine!

yeah most higher boost numbers are from smaller turbos.

Ok fucktard one I never said on stock head I made it clear with high tensile studs my 02 is fire rings and I got a set of custom injectors in it biggest in the country ok and another I got close to 30 in the motor about 17 in the tranny to handle this so Luke idk how a guy who answers phones for Preimer would have a truck more built then mine as he stated 150 psi natural
Now if you guys have doublts I will load the ****** up (come spring getting her winter rebuild now and come to the closet strip and let you drive the ****** thing I haven't made up my mind on paint job yet so it's in black primer so it's not a big deal if you wreck it ill build it again so kindly get back to me with the name of the strip and when the first drags are

I said it once now gonna be twice look I'm sorry my parents pasted away 6 years ago and left me money I'd give it all back to see them again but this is the cards I've been delt and to be technally my highest boost just barley got 150 not 160 or 155 150 on a cool fall night and I never said you did Luke I was stating what that guy said he had I have an old slow 99 7.3 cracked windshield it's the only truck I have that leaves pavement and its a blast to drive that old 6 speed ford had that you can never get a smooth shift from granny to second look I don't care if they blow and I'm not saying that mine won't ever blow I'm just saying they haven't yet
