It's what others have said but I'll say it again.
More boost does not always mean more power.
I have proved this with other dynos that I've done in the past.

Cooler intake temps equal more power, so it's obvious that the VK Motorwerks IC lowered the intake air temps so the turbos didn't have to work as hard.

But.. what I don't understand is HOW Vince ended up with lower boost ... the car did that on it's own...

As someone else mentioned... HOW did the car know ? Same with hot/cold weather... How does the car change boost...

With V3 ... and torque settings set at say ...90 ... i thought that defined boost to be a certain value (i don't know what it is but i thought it was a constant)

How is the car/v3 adjusting on it's own... to magically keep almost the same power... how does it know ??
