I think the '85s were tuned really conservatively, as far as fuel delivery and boost are concerned. My '85 made about 7 redlined in second, the '84 made about nine or ten. I used a boost controller on both because I coundn't figure out how to adjust the wastegate on a Garrett. I had one off the otherday and having it in my lap made it easy to figure out. Doh!

300SD81, I'd say just set it at 13psi, where it should be.
