That is what boost was showing from a 3bar map sensor.

That was last Thursday at Lowe, and as Rick said that is the reading from a Xenocron 3bar MAP.

300 ft. lbs. of torque for nearly 3000 rpm is a pretty good powerband.

I am not doubting but something is off here. I dont see this car making that power unless some things have changed from before.

with 13-14 psi making 473whp? what turbo is on this car now, it has to be something much larger than before or that map sensor is scaled and reading wrong?

also why is the graph have the blacked out information in the top left corner?
