So, if I do the math correctly on this Drag kit, 1 PSI = 54 RWHP...quite amazing.

[B]The drag kit uses a smaller less efficient turbo... has a smaller (ie. less efficient) intercooler and has enough piping to build an overseas pipeline and is only $1K less than a Speedcraft kit.

So if anyone was to order a kit from Speed Craft right now it wouldn't be available for a few months?

SpeedCraft - Current dyno numbers with 8 psi: 320 HP with 212 torque.
DRAG - With the boost upped to 8lbs Bird has hit 325 hp at the wheels
Shouldn't the two be extremely comparable? Of course we don't have a dyno to back up the DRAG kit, but from what is being said here...aren't the two comparable in terms of power?

I'm just curious since theres not a lot of information out on the DRAG kit.

There's no way that the DRAG kit jumped from 271 RWHP at 7 psi to 325 RWHP at 8 psi... especially with the set up they're using. It's simple math... you can generall expect 10-15 RWHP per psi when turbocharging a Honda. The DRAG kit produces less then 10 RWHP per psi at 7 psi but jumps to 15 RWHP per psi at 8 pounds. Come on... there's no way. Like I said before, both the turbo and the intercooler are smaller and less efficient than the ones Speedcraft uses but it's pushing more HP...??? NOT.

In street tuners, they say 270 RWHP with 6 PSI...so that would mean 27 RWHP = 1 PSI on pump gas.

hmmm....How much of a differences does 100 octane make?

They say that they make a T3/T4 Turbonetics turbo. Isn't the same size turbo that Speedcraft uses?
