Is this going to be like the Price is Right - closest without going over is the winner?

Very close . 275hp, 300tq.

The dyno chart is weird, they've got the rpm wrong. The chart shows it shutting down at 5800 but he ran it to the limiter 6600. I logged it and boost fell closer to 14.0 over 5500 and it got fat on the mixture (11.7 range) so I'm betting with a little more tuning can probably get it closer to 300.

But I'm happy. Just a number. Car runs great. Sat door to door with a new 5.0 Mustang (with at least a cat-back on it) through 3rd gear the other day. Good enough for me.

What were your AFRs looking like?

Curious why only 14 psi? I would think the T04 would be efficient quite a bit higher than that. You're running basically the same setup I have and as soon as I get my updated chip I'm going to head to the dyno. My car runs and spools great, but I figured I'd run closer to 16-17 when I get it dialed in. Maybe I wont be so brave when it comes time to turn the dial

Yeah I know this turbo has the sweet spot in the 16-18 range. This exact turbo put down 350rw at 18psi on E85 (I bought this turbo from refresh951 back when he was still a 2.5L).

E85 is hard to find by me so I only run pump (93). Plus I need the darned thing to stay together and be reliable... so I keep the boost turned down. I know... I'm a wimp.

I just took another look at the logs... AFR's aren't as fat as I initially thought. They hold in the 12.0-12.1 range up until ~5500 when it starts to get progressively richer as the revs climb, ending at 11.3 by 6600. I'll probably lean it out a little more up top.

If RPM is incorrect on the chart then the HP calculations would probably be off as well?

FWIW, I recall doing a few 20 PSI E85 pulls with that turbo and didn't see any boost taper up to redline.
