I would have expected you to be around 15-16 psi
Hey, Ted. Got a lingering question about turbos and dynos (not meaning to sidetrack this thread here but...). Seems to me the RWHP is inflated for dynos when using the correction factor on turbos. For me and the altitude dyno'd at, the correction factor puts me at 945rwhp, but I know that my 1/4-mile run trap speed puts me at 735rwhp (to the ground) way up here mile high, and then some, altitude. If I were to dyno at sea level, I'm pretty darn sure the dyno and my motor would not spit out 945rwhp on the turbos. So, here's the golden question: what is a more representative correction factor, say per 1000ft, for turbos compared to SC/NA cars on a dyno.
