    I have tried to contact Ben Swan via email without success just to see what his chips are like...His price very cheap considering what you pay else were

      Next time I will be more persistent. I will also make 100% sure that you are on the email list.

      As for Alex and IA, he's not Ned Ritchie.

      Hmm. I didn't see that email. That's not to say I'm not on that list though. I just haven't been paying much attention to it. Sorry I missed you when you came through!

      I never had the pleasure of dealing directly with Ned so I have no gauge to measure against. Alex seems quite knowledgeable though. Thinking about it a little further though, the 2.5 BAR map sensor is really only capable of measuring about 22 psi of boost. I don't know enough about the ins and outs of forced air induction, but my gut tells me you need to be up around 27-28 psi to make the 380 hp that IA claims. Having said that, my boost gauge shows me 26 psi when I'm on it. Does that make sense?
