Turbo Boost tuning for altitude versus sea-level **TUNERS HELP**

[Unreal]

No it won't, and don't worry about boost at all.

Look at all the shops in Utah, Colorado, New Mexico that do 800rwhp stock motor cars all the time, they all have 25-30% correction factors.

Me either. When you need Meth still escapes me. I know you need enough fuel. So I have the ZL1 pump and the ADM controller.

Right now @ 10 pounds at sea level I am safe. Any general rule of thumb where you run out gas and/or need meth with the AGP kits?

So if dresknot goes big and then brought his car to Atco he would have to back off on the boost? The other way around I would just lose power.

Next task is to find a tuner that will do it around here. The past tuners I've had were the ones who've got me paranoid. Talked about not exceeding 7-9# boost on my LS3, definitely don't go past 10# with my stock internals. This is weird being "instructed" that I can crank the boost. I have seen information that speaks in HP, and the engine limits though those stages of HP. It does make sense. But in order to get to those HP limits, I would have to really exceed the earlier tuners expertise/recommendations and add 5-7# additional boost on top.

But, if I understand correctly, boost won't blow things like head gaskets or ring blow-by. It's the power levels. Real RWHP being produced (the uncorrected number).
