Thanks for info. I did use the o2 port to measure exh sys backpressure on my 83 8VT, with saab sport exh and oem cat converter. no significant pressure until above 5K rpms, where gage rose to about 1.5 psi, 10 kpa. Based on boost, and IC and intake improvements, I estimated engine max hp at about 150-155.
This pressure seems low, vs 40-60kpa (5.8-8.7 psi).
I also have bicycling interests, personal and commercial .... have you figured how to turbocharge your legs :)
