24psi? I know there are folks on here who would disagree with me but 1 bar is really the functional limit for long term reliability.
On a side note, glad to see your car is getting closer to leaving FL. Question for you, based on your experiences, if you had to do it over again, would you have sent your car to the shop you had do the work?

how is the off-boost driving?
i imagine the 3.0 makes up for it somewhat but it's got to feel "soft"?

Congrats! Awesome result and sweet CR for high boost.
I hope this one lasts.
What is the off boost drivability like at 7.0:1?

7:1? Wow, that's old school low compression. I'd much rather run less boost and have much higher compression, it'll make for a motor that's far more pleasant to drive on the street...
Glad to see it running again, hopefully when you get it back all the issues have been resolved.

if it's got a stock (or close) camshaft, with the displacement alone i'd think it should still make like 150-170 lbft "off boost" at the low end.
dial your boost controller to 0psi and dyno it atmospheric, to see what happens
