d15 is right the first time, it's lengthening the arm, that would cause the flapper to open sooner.

or you can run crush bent charge pipes and a super restrictive intercooler to maximize pressure drops.

t25 is a really really small turbo so 8lbs aint ----, especially on a zc


that motor will take more than that turbo will ever give it
