Am I supposed to be hitting 300 load cells???

First off, 2006 EVO IX MR. mods: 3inch TBE w/ test pipe, cone filter w/ stock piping, LICP, Walbro 255, Hallman MBC (set at 22psi), APS twin vent bov.

Whenever I log my car, I hit about 310 load at 3500 rpm, I've been told that this is pretty dang high.

Using 2 byte load. No knock, nothing too aggressive in the flash. It tapers down to 230 load at 7500 rpms.

Any suggestions? I'm still super new to this, learning more and more everyday. Any help would be appreciated, Thanks guys!

Seems to be about right...I have the same mods, minus the o2, and instead of the test pipe, I have a 100 cell HFC. @ 24.5 - 25 psi, and Im seeing 295-305 load. 2 byte and 1 byte. Im only seein 220ish @ 7500...

I believe your cone filter, and my injen intake are scewing the MAF just a touch... And if we were using the stock box, it would be a bit lower. I'll let the gurus chime in though...
what brand cone filter?

The cone filter I have I don't know the brand, I had it on my old car and it happened to fit onto this, so I tried it out. I will be getting a new pipe and filter sometime soon.

Load is based solely on airflow reading. Airflow reading is based on air velocity. Air velocity will be dependent on air density and mass flow rate.

High altitude means low density which means a higher air velocity for a given mass flow rate.

Multiply your load by roughly 0.85 to compare to sea level guys. Otherwise, compare to other local guys. I think I was hitting right around 290-300 load with 24 psi on the stock cat back this winter.
