[quote=intenseblu]or less ... it all matters on what tubo you use and intercooling ... you can pop a t25 with choked A/R on it and not intercool it and make 50hp extra ... that statement was made thinking conservatively since the ECU will not compensate for even 50hp on its own.[/quote


ahhh. back to the original question!
there are parameters of richness vs leaning out that the stock ecu must deal with.

other than making a broad statement of what the ecu can and cannot do, does anyone have any data on that parameter?

while the debate of how to accomplish boost the most effectivly for the dollar is informative, the original question deals with what the ecu can handle.
lots of bashing here with regard to boosting systems not viable without rewriting the software.
but i'm still looking for proof that the ecu can't handle minor boost.

i'm all for supporting some of the boosting concepts and have a few ideas of my own. but dialog with others is the foundation of learning. someone out there must have the absolute data the ecu's are programmed with.

one more to throw out...
if course we have all seen the performance increases posted by numerous companies on their reprogram.

would it not be possible to provide the additional boost info [5 psi], additional fuel pressure available...ect, and have the ecu programmed for optimal performance?
