    Anyone have a clue on what 2 psi is worth on a stg 2 2.0? My boost is limited to 15psi since the clutch was slipping on the dyno. I recently got a new clutch and was pondering another tune down the road, but only if it'd be worth more than 10-15 hp. Thanks.

    You would be looking at more tq then hp most likely, it would certainly be a healthy bump in your overall curve. If you are planning on staying on the stock turbo i would do it.

    Thanks. Good to know since after driving a 2012 mustang gt (my parents scored that as a rental when they visited for thanksgiving) my cars have been feeling slow.

    You are probably making about ~220whp on 15psi, you should be making about ~240whp after a retune @17-18psi, but you would proba pick up an easy 30wtq or so. Depends on whose tuning and on what dyno of course.

    Yea that would be worth an hour or two of tuning. Hopefully only an hour if I go back to the same tuner.
