Anybody that knows anything about a turbo car, the more load you put on the engine the more boost you will make. That is why it is very difficult to get a good comparison on any turbo car or truck on a chassis dyno. If you have a clutch slipping, if you have traction issues, this all can effect the load on the motor which means less boost. Some folks can make more boost on the street or drag strip. So to put this all together, my car had a bigger load on it in 5th gear, it made boost sooner (by looking at the Tq graph), and it made more hp because of it. It still made 825hp at the wheel. That is 949 hp at the crank.
