Also, more boost doesnt mean more power all the time.

Do not do the boost bypass mod ....

yea, it's silly.

basically, you want to run the least possible amount of boost to hit a certain hp goal. Suppose you want to hit 300hp. One car does it on 21 psi, and the other car does it at 16psi. (just making up #'s here) The car that does it at 16psi is running much more efficiently. Less boost, same hp, more reliable car.

Ricer math says more boost = more power. not always the case.

Buy upgraded injectors and a smaller pulley with a tune. Its the only way to get more boost.

boost bypass mod should only ever been used as a troubleshooting tool to determine whether your bypass actuator is working or not.
