Just for bench racing and approx calculations, on these cars how much HP per 1 lb of boost?? Or if it matters, over 10lbs for every pound how much HP?
Thanks all!

That would depend on a lot of variables. Such as air charge temp, air flow through through the intercooler and IC pipes, flow through the heads and valves, flow and/or backpressure in the exhaust, present state of tune.

Just way too many variables to say X amount of boost = Y amount of horsepower.

Boost pressure is really just a measurement of backpressure in the system that the supercharger is pushing against.
