when tuning hondata am going to tuned to about 400-420whp on c16 for the track
but the thing is am going to drive on the street some to and on pump gas (93) and i want 300-350 for street driving am running 10.2:1 comp so i should have 400whp by 17-18psi with a t3/t04e 60trim so can i just turn the boost down on pump gas to about 14-15psi on the street with the same map for the high boost and race gas setup?

i dont want to go back to the dyno on pump gas and burn a new chip for this and pay for the dyno time and tuner for this

i dont think i should try to get my whp goal on pump gas with my high comp

(but my comp maybe around 10.5:1 by now i had the head deck about 4 times)

i would like to know that also.

 

Yes!

If you tune on higher boost with c16, you can just turned the boost down and run on lower octane gas for the street.

You will get the 400whp on race gas only! Do not attempt to get that whp on pump gas. I mean it can be accomplished on pump gas but it's too risky for me to try.

 

how much boost should i run on pump gas then or do i have to dyno first and see how much boost to get 400whp

 

It's always best to do your partial throttle first. You should this on pump gas, this takes the longest time to do. Have someone drive the car around while you tune it for partial throttle.

Then after that go for max power on the dyno. I have done WOT max power runs on the highway before but you just run out of room. Goto the dyno it's safer and besides tickets cost too much money these days.

The most boost that i recommend running on pump gas (94 octane) is around 14psi, depending on compression.

Turbo is way easier to tune for pump\race gas than all-motor.

With the Turbo, just go upto a certain boost on Pump...Then change your boost maps above that tuned for the c16. You'll be able to run much more timing and boost.
