D16Y7 @ 5.5 psi any etas?

Assuming stock internals, with hi-flow cat exhaust (no muffler, just hi-flow cat and back at 2.25") and 5.5 lbs of boost... how much wheel horsepower do you think I'd be pulling in california? and 1/4 mile eta?
I know it pulls about 2-3 times harder then it used to, but we dont have any dynos for a long ways away

Well I have no idea what car you are in.. ? 6g civic? anyhow, most custom junkyard kits 5-7psi intercooled range from 35-60hp

usually will drop 1.5 to .8 off your et's

i've seen people running only 6 psi drop over 2 seconds off their 1/4 mile. but that's also after they stripped their cars out

It certainly feels like a huge difference, I mean ... the only way I really determine it is by how fast I can get off on the interstate ramp. I used to hit about 75 mph at the end of it, and now I'm getting up to 105sh. Thats quite a gain for me, I'm not sure how long of a distance it is, but that is assuming I was completely stopped before accelerating.
