Factory boost on the R34 GTR is just under 1 bar ( 14.6 psi). One of our club members has a Vspec ll which is the only one driving around New Zealand at the time.

The WRX does not come from the factory running 1 bar. I have yet to see an EVO, WRX, or GTR come from the facotry running that sort of boost. Most generally speaking they are set up pretty conservitive, say around the 10 - 13 psi range. The skylines use a ceramic exhaust wheel on their turbos to promote quicker spool up time and they are also quite a bit bigger than the others. Since the GTR uses a twin turbo set up, on that is not sequencial but in parallel, quicker spooling turbos meen less lag.

Have no fear dude there is nothing made on this planet with under 3 liters that can be modified to touch the GTR's RB26DETT motor when it is also modified by the top guns in Japan.
