turbo cars lose power at altitude if they don't turn up the boost, or if it isn't set from absolute pressure. if you read from barometric pressure like with a hand vacuum gauge car making 10(24.7 absolute) psi at sea level has more air than a car making 10(22.2 absolute) psi in denver. if you have an electronic boost controller that references an absolute pressure sensor instead of a baro pressure sensor then you will make the same power regardless of elevation.
