Yesterday at the track the boost controller took a dump so I was forced to put together a quick tuneup for a bracket race I was entering. I switched over from EBC to manual as quick as I could and ended up with a max boost of 11 psi. Still clocked a 6.66.
 
I'm wondering how unique something like this is. Are there a lot of other Stage I, or even Stage II door car V6s clicking off mid 6s in the 1/8 using only 11 psi boost?
 
Had another interesting pass last Sat night. A 6.8x 1/8 mile ET pass with 150 kPa MAP. That's like 7 or 8 psi boost?
Is it the turbo? I'm at a loss here, guys.
 
I know Nick Micale runs 10.0 in the 1/4 mile at only 18 psi and has to turn the boost way down to run in the local 6.50 index 1/8 mile class. How far he tuns it down I do not know. He runs a TA 275 c.i. stroker, but his car is heavier than yours.
