25 lbs boost from a 5 lb. spring possible?
I'm using a 12 lb. spring and a Blitz SBC boost controller. The spring is about the lightest I can use with the setup I have, and still get 25 lbs. on the high boost setting. 12 - 13 lbs is way more than I can use in gears 1-3. I would like to be able to dial it back to 5 or so for 1st and gradually increase it as I go through the gears. I've heard that CO2 setups can be utilized to make this work but it doesn't sound practical for a daily driver - with the bottle running out as you drive around. Sounds like a drag strip only application.
Anything else that would work?
92 hatch, H22, Full Race exh., GT35, Tial 60 wastegate, Blitz SBC id electronic boost controller, BFG Drag radials, 3" exh. for full length, no cat.
