Well i went for a drive today, to see what kind of boost this thing is actually doing, and also to see if it smokes
Answer seems to be, a lot more than i originally thought, on both counts
It will boost 18/19psi between 2500 and 3500rpm
But at 3500 it jumps up! to 22psi right until the power dies at about 4500rpm. (its quite a revvy wee engine)
Also, it smokes at full throttle, on boost, off boost at any rpm. Not sure if either of the above are things i should be concerned about, it doesnt go any faster for the extra boost about 3500 haha.
Not noticed it smoke before but in the dark right now you can really see it in the headlights.
