I thought it was something like that - can they change the boost on Group 'n' spec cars?

My GT straight from the factory runs 15psi

What I can't understand why Scoobys and Cossies sound so good with DV's, but my mates 2.0 16v 4x4 Calibra sounds like a little whistle compared with the other 2 even though they run very simular boost presure's.

no oliie factory GT's run over boost of 24psi, 15psi from 3000-4500rpm then down to 10psi at 6000rpm. in reality they run a bit more
