reporting meaningful SC boost pressures

[reddelsol]

I was thinking (dangerous, I know) but wouldn't it be more meaningful to relay your boost pressure in direct proportion to your hp or track time.

I know most people seem to post that they're running a 6psi "pulley" @ such & such qrt mile time or hp & tq numbers, rather than 7.5psi at 190hp or whatever it is the boost guage is showing.

Well, that is for all those running boost guages.

For instance @ "boost pressure" 5psi = 168.7HP & 118.3TQ on my b16a.

I've since gone to a smaller pulley and few other changes, but have no comparing numbers yet for track or dyno.

...well, I should clarify my boost guage doesn't give out HP numbers (wouldn't that be nice!) but anyway, I think ya'll can figure what I meant.

Actually, I think it might be even clearer just to state what engine you're running and how much HP/TQ / pounds of boost you're making and engine size.

For instance, my previous numbers

B16a2:

33.4hp / lb of boost or 104.4375 HP / litre

Oh well, can't change the world, just thinking...

I posted something exactly like that a couple of months ago when I was still prototyping my setup.
