Thanks for the data Hans. Looks like we are both in the same turbo boost range. Your stats at WOT in psi from kpa is 29.0075 psi and that is approx where my range is.

I am not aware of my min. Planning speed. I normally run on plane at 3200 + -, or off plane for channel work.

I find weight from fuel and my dinghy impact performance to a slight degree.
