anybody know what i'll boost with a ott stage 1

 

what size pulley do you get with that ?

with my 2.8 I get 18 psi

 

its a 2.8

 

i boost 16-17psi

 

do you have that kit ?

 

yea its 2.8. i also have a cold air. no exhaust but that dont effect boost right?

 

A 2.8 will net a 16-17 psi range... depending on mods and how much restriction you have in the exhaust side of things.

Some will see 15-15.5 will free flowing intake and exhaust, others will see 17-18 with a stock exhaust system!

 

no, it on the way. j/w. i know a srt-4 boost 16psi. kinda wanting to smoke it

 

I got Injen intake, 3' catless DP, tune, Ott stage one and i boost 16-17...so yes i do have the kit, best out there IMO

 

you race any srt-4s

 

^^ with the ottp stage 1 u will beat a stock srt 4..without a doubt

 

yeah, exhaust has a big affect on how much you're boosting.

 

maybe thats y I get 18psi

 

Sweet you finally put the $$$ down on the kit!

 

anywhere from 15 to 18 psi. depends on exhaust mods and cooling mods

 

i get 18.5 mostly. if u free up ur exhaust the boost will probably drop doto lack of back pressure which is good cuz boost doesnt create power its just a measurement of pressure inside the manifold.

 

The engine is a giant pump..

the faster the air gets out, the faster new air can get in, and make power.

and absolutly correct, psi is just a measurement...

 

yea i put the money down. Thats a great comparison. i always thought of boost as hp. more boost more hp.

 

^^nope not true..

 

so what you think on the highway can i beat the srt-4 just ott stage 1 and cold air. he has cold air, exhaust adn boost gauge turned up to about 16psi

 

the amount of boost is almost irelevant. you can take 2 cars, 1 with 14 psi, and it can be faster than the same car with 18 psi. psi is not an indicator of power, just of restriction. that being said, just because you have a certain psi doesn't mean you're necesarily going to be faster than another car with higher or lower psi. and you especially can't compare boost #'s on different cars.

 

thats nice to know. thinks man. thats the most i've learned on here.
