Default Turbo KIt install in Turbo Mag

In the October 2003 Turbo Magazine there is a feature on the F-Max Turbo kit for the SC300. It features a before and after dyno. The SC300 made 324hp & 292 lb-ft of torque at 10psi. An increase of 155hp and 131 lb-ft of torque over the baseline. The article is on page 42.

At 10psi, 320hp to the wheels is pretty impressive I think.

Notice that F-max kit doesn't have a boost controler. You're not maxing out the boost. Simply running at low levels.
