well we had our club Dyno day saturday and I got 299.3 whp and 305 lbft TQ at the wheel, which is abotu what I expected, the unfortunate thing is I had to turn the boost up to 20 psi to get there, it should have been able to make it on 15 or so, but I knew #2 was loosing compression and I suspect some of the other cylinders might be loosing as well, especially since I accidentally spiked to 35 psi !? keep in mind this is a 183k mile junkyard motor that I've been beating on for about 3 years now, and also keep in mind my car weighs about 2300lbs with me in it

the L6 isn't easy to kill, and like I said it's in bad health already, at 20 psi i should be closer to 400whp, I might have bite of piston ring in my oil pan but it still runs like a scalded dog
