I was cracking 14psi with a carb spring wastegate setup on my old stock z6/14b, rough estimates by a few people were towards 215-225hp range. No actual physical numbers though, as that one never met a dyno. :P

Lol, yup. Also one of the best setups and most gangsta ghetto setups I ever built. Also the longest running setup I ever built, vafc tuned complete with occasional solid cel's from overboost and popping couplers off on a daily basis. Ran that motor hard for almost a year, never broke anything except for a heavily slipping stage 2 clutch lol. I went off what the vafc said for boost, although when it said 14psi my autometer gauge said around 20. All I know is at whatever pressure it was at it made my 1st gen eclipse bov squeak like an rfl
