I finally found someone who could tune my canam. Do to a faulty boost controller we could only tune it at the wastegate spring pressure of 5.5 psi. Can't belive what a difference the tunning made. It went from a fast car to a rocket. :yikes: I think I'll hold off on uping the boost for a while.

stock 98 ls1
single turbo 5.5 psi

That is at the wheels. (I was there and you can not imagine how good that LS-1 sounds with a turbo spooled up!)

That's a healthy chart. Cubes and low boost go really well together. I'd stay with the low boost though unless you're not to concerned about replacing a short engine. The weakness will be the pistons and liners. One bit of detonation is something you don't want.

Boosted.
