[QUOTE="Juiced46, post: 15604624, member: 11519"] Lol, pretty much. On 18psi. These #s are exactly where they should be. Every 2.8 KB I have ever installed with 17-18psi, would make roughly 575-600rwhp and 490-520rwtq. The KB 2.8 and 2.6 is pretty lazy down low. Boost ramps up slightly instead of getting it all on the hit like a TVS or Whipple which attributes to the lower TQ #s. IMO, there is nothing wrong with this car. If you are comparing #s to someone who makes 15-20rwtq or so more then you, there is nothing wrong. Every dyno is different. There are way to many factors that affect #s. Heck, how tight you strap the car on the dyno, type of tires and tire pressures all affect dyno #s amongst all the other obvious stuff. If you REALLY feel like you have an issue with your reman engine, which I doubt there is. Do a compression check..... If you want to make MORE power, then pulley the 2.8 the way it should be pullied for. If you do not want to run more boost. Sell the 2.8, put a 2.3 TVS on it and make the same HP and pick up around 75-100rwtq on the same amount of boost and have a fun car. [/QUOTE]
