Intake leakage? check pipings etc

We did 280whp at 7psi with the same turbo stock b16 on a dynojet.
the turbo is big enough!

do you have any ignition issues on the engine?

plug gap?
condition of your dizzy?

I have a b16 with ITR cams, a drag manifold, and a t3/t4E and I put down 398whp at 17-18psi so something other than the cams is the problem. Check for a boost leak.

ill check for a boost leak with my leak tester but idk im pretty sure the entire charge side is solid, it makes and holds boost well, starts spoioling around 3k

I have a dizzy with a brand new coil and ignitor, rotor and cap may be a lil old but it wasnt missing or anything on the dyno

plug gap aroun .020 and brand new OEM wires

Haven't used hondata in a while. Does the s200 have knock control? If it does, it may be retarding your timing on the top end, causing you to not make power.
