lol on a b16 this thing would be all top end and nothing else

That's an apples vs oranges comparison if I've ever seen one.

When is this dyno happening and what boost will be run? I'm obviously interested in the results and don't think I'll be that far off my mark in talking about what it's capable of at what psi.
