[QUOTE="Nathan'sTsi, post: 9871561, member: 14187"] Every car is hanicapped by altitude. However, a turbo car will build the same boost as long as the compressor wheel can keep up with the demand. The choke flow of a turbo is based and tested at a certain atmospheric pressure. At higher altitude, the air is less dense so the compressor map shifts to the left. This means their is now a lower choke flow for the same turbo at the higher altitude. With less airflow "available" from the compressors, the turbos will not be able to maintain the same boost pressure as if they were at sea level. [/QUOTE]
