You are also making more boost I thought, like 40ish psi? This guy is at 34ish.

The X motor is similar to a honda motor, its just super efficient up top.

From what I have seen, everytime on the same turbo, the x spools faster yet lacks the same mid range punch, but usually doesn't taper up top like the 8/9 if the turbo isn't maxed.

Different motor/platform, the 4b11 IS a good motor when it stays together
