PSI doesn't equal power. It is just part of the equation. you have to factor boost pressure with size and effiency of turbo, pipe and TB diameter, compression, A/F mix, timing, exhaust flow, and many, many other things.

Consider that some turbo diesel trucks only run about 5 psi and make LOTS more power than stock Evos.

EDIT: Mine hits 1.4 bar according to the stock gauge. Thats 20.3 psi or so. But the weather has cooled off a bit down here.
