Its irrelevant why we power run with only 15psi etc as its our own business. However i will justify why i did. I assumed i was running 17psi Therefore i wanted to ensure it was running ok and making adequate power. Turns out my cheap boost gauge is 3 psi out. Making what i made on the boost i was running chuffed me to bits. This car is my daily drive and not a track weapon or a car that i have been building for a silly lenght of time, it takes me to every destination. Thars why some of us have a power run at said low boost and thats why some of us are very happy with the results. Lets not forget the social aspect of participating in a club event as another reason. Excuse lack of spacing. Dont know how to on itouch.

does that mean i cheated by turning the boost upto 1.45bars to get my hands on that champaigne?? :P

im not that disappointed with mine now im over it. lol I got 155 on 12psi at the end of the day so now i know for next time when i have a different actuator and maybe a electric boost controller it should hold 19psi this time lol

Glad everyone had a good time.

I think what a number of people here are forgetting is that the rolling road is used by so many people for development of a car. So 'disappointing' figures are not relevant in most cases.

When I get the GT on to a rolling road for the first time , it will be to see what it makes, then iron out any potential problems i.e. boost controlling or another problem - which only r/r can detect, I'm sure I speak for many others on here.

Turning up with a car that is perfect is nice - but is the end result. Without a rolling road day such as this - getting figures better than expected would be far more difficult.
