I like it -- but only because it favors the SVO, which can make well over 20 psi and flow up to 300 hp with the stock turbo and an engine modified to SP rules. Richard Nichols rnichol1@san.rr.com San

Seems like, if "intercoolers are unrestricted" in SP as stated (OK, 98 rule book, 14.10.C, could be obsolete) then we'd better find one with a bypass valve in it! The principal benefit I would get (S

No, no, no -- I was being responsive to YOUR point, which was to allow no mods to the turbo but allow mods to the boost controls. The SVO in stock trim makes 15 psi, and there's not much worth doing
