The funny thing is when you see a turbo Mustang with 2.5" intercooler piping making 800-1000whp and you wonder how that is even possible.

Yea but they are probably running ~12 psi boost right?

So not flowing near as much compressed air as a 4g63?

Edit - and somehow I figure boost isn't a clear indication of how much air a car is flowing, so basically I'm assuming I'm wrong already...

'flow' defines an amount of air, not just volume, not just pressure, but both (and temperature). Volume pretty much defines power output. More I'm seeing that 2.5" is not much of a restriction at 500whp.
