This time I was running the stock wastegate, 6psi. According to the gauge it was making 5.5 psi, which given the power levels seems about right.
263rwhp and 260 rwtq corrected. At 8psi last October it made 283/291. I toned it down because I was getting bad detonation and wanted to play it safe.
As a data point, I put on a friend's manual boost controller but couldn't get it working right. The boost climbed up to 10psi at 4400 before I let off, though the numbers at that point were great- 253rwhp and a satisfying 301rwtq. I got scared though and that's why I didn't let it run up any higher.
The water injection is doing its job and I didn't have any detonation, unlike the last time I was there.
