Page cannot be found. So is this some justification as to why the APS ST loses boost near redline?

worked....nice article.



So is APS saying they intentionally developed their turbo system to run higher boost in the midrange and taper off towards redline? Great idea...BTW...but hard to market, since people are always asking "how much boost" does a kit make. And if you say 10psi, but it is only set at 8psi at redline, it tends to confuse people.

Maybe I'm a bit dense, but didn't the article contradict itself by saying the taper in boost is intentional, then saying it's a biproduct of backpressure?

Maybe someone can enlighten me?
