[QUOTE="AmnDucky, post: 9872180, member: 106874"] You are right, my mistake. Remember children never drive or post while fatigued :-D Turbos will take longer to spool at altitude, but should theoretically make the same boost. Small aircraft use "turbo-normalized" engines these days. They put a turbo on the motor but limit it at 0lbs of boost. Useless at sea level, but it allows the engine to perform like it was at sea level when the plane is at 10,000' because the turbo will forever spin faster to hit sea level pressure. One thing I like about turbos is you can change boost on the fly with a controller. Get an SCT livewire with 6 tunes for different boost levels, and adjust your tunes and boost on the fly. I'm still going to go with a whipple when the money comes, and run a moderate boost level. I've ridden in my cousins turbo mustang. And while its fun as hell, I dont like the lag. [/QUOTE]
