[QUOTE="Norton, post: 15981501, member: 145307"] Formulas involving ABSOLUTE air pressure (e.g., 14.7 PSIa @ sea level, ~12 PSIa in Denver, etc) are required to compute exact numbers. In my experience, however, boost loss due to altitude is about 1lb for every 2K feet of elevation. (e.g., My 2013 GT500 was rated to produce max boost of ~15lbs at sea level. This translated to ~12lbs at ~6K ft of elevation.) Based on that, I'd expect a loss of just under 3lbs at 5.5K ft elevation. [/QUOTE]
