So in conclusion: According to the prevailing belief, that we must limit the boost to 18 psi, our 951 engines must be wimpy little things.

 

Laust: Are you bored

 

Pump gas limits us and almost everyone to 18psi. I dragged a Supra at Ruapuna today, it ran a 13.5 at 117mph! How about that for top end.

 

I know several rennlisters boosting 20+psi on pump gas, anyway..........

 

Yeah, I did as well. Anyone can do it. Depends how much det you want. At 17 degrees and 18.5 psi, anymore timing will get some det on my setup. This is by using the Knock Block. So its basically as good as you get det monitoring wise.

 

wonder how if would do at laguna seca? vs let's say......NZ's 951? 3 laps!!?

 

Hosrom, Just in a provocative mood, spurred by reading too many threads and posts on what you cannot do.
Generally there is nothing wrong with high boost if managed correctly.

 

Laust: What i meant was you going back and reading the archives hence me saying "are you bored" LOL

You should know a lot about high boost on 951's though

 

Figured I would toss in this fact for anyone interested...

Promotion Racing ran either 32 or 37 psi, I forget which it was, on a very well tuned and built engine (internals and the whole schebang) and cracked the block!

EDIT: I will get more information on this if anyone is interested.
