Yep - Right around 15 psi. The timing was done with a tuned chip at slightly less boost. I think you could get more out of the engine if you were to fine tune the ignition timing. The Zeitronix data logger will log the Exhaust Gas Temp. I have the sensor, but have not welded the bung on the headers.
I am also running a CAT. With a couple of these things work on, it could really scream!

Looking at Lindsey's Stage 1 kit, they are making 275 hp at 15.5 psi of boost. This is with a Turbo S engine with a bigger turbocharger. From what I have read the Mustang dyno is approximately 8% more conservative on the horsepower results. Adding the 8%, it would be turning 265 hp at the wheels. Having a cat and a 2.5" exhaust you are not going to get too much more out of supercharging a NA.
What are other peoples SC cars running at?
