Typical Stage1, Stage2 vs Stock Power:Image RemovedResults may vary. Power as tested on 2002 - 2005 WRX vehicles using these identical calibrations. Generally speaking, the 91 and ACN91 calibrations run slightly lower boost, have a richer fuel curve, and a less aggressive ignition advance map to help compensate for 91 octane fuel; Arizona, California, and Nevada 91 octane fuel; and/or less than ideal atmospheric conditions. The maps designed for 93 octane are the most aggressive.
Fuel Requirements: 91 octane found in Arizona, California, and Nevada or better exhaust upgraded cat-back exhaust ~14.0psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~12.0psi by the 7250RPM redline, +/- 1.0 psiBoost Targets: exhaust upgraded cat-back exhaust only Upgraded turbo-back exhaustBoost Targets: ~16.0psi peak boost pressure tapering down to ~12.0psi by the 7250RPM redline, +/- 1.0 psi Upgraded turbo-back exhaust only

Monitoring Boost Levels:
The best way to determine if you are hitting target boost is to watch the TD Boost Error parameter. This parameter is your target boost (including altitude and temperature compensations) minus your actual boost (negative values mean you are over the target by the amount while positive values mean you are under). Ideally you want this value to be between 0 and 1.0 at wide open throttle (WOT), but -1.0 to 1.0 is acceptable assuming that you don’t have any significant knock corrections. Overboosting is more likely to occur in higher gears and with colder outside temperatures, so be sure to verify boost levels during these conditions.
High Altitude:
A quick note for those of you that live at higher altitudes. It is common for turbocharged cars at higher altitudes to run less boost pressure due to lower air pressure and air density. Your turbocharger has to work harder to compress a less dense air mass compared to the same turbocharger at sea level. This must be factored in when determining if your turbocharger is running the proper amount of boost pressure and not being pushed beyond its efficiency range.
Example: If you live in Denver at 5280 ft and are trying to run a peak boost pressure of 15 psi, your turbocharger has to work the equivalent of making ~17.5 psi at sea level.
There are barometric compensations within the factory ECU that lower boost targets as you climb in altitude in an effort to keep the turbocharger in its optimal range. The COBB performance maps utilize these compensations and therefore, it is perfectly normal for the final boost target to be lower than what is listed for your map.
