That's awesome man!!

[SaabKraft]

peak boost on my stock APC box is about .7 BAR, or 10 psi

going to go manual boost control and hopefully bump it up to about 15 psi or so, on a (i believe) 9:1 compression ratio

if it was in peak condition, about 160 hp and 188 lb/ft bone stock.

I know. This boost thing is addicting already. I went through a whole tank of 94 by Sunday nite. hehe. Oh yeah apparently 7psi is good enough to take out a 5.0L :poosie::angel:
