There are still boost guages in GT3. You can also hear a BOV, it's not loud, but it still sounds sweet.

There are numbers on it, and they're really small compared to the tachometer numbers, but I've never got close enough to my TV to read them. Never paid attention to how much boost they were running...

The numbers on the Turbo Guage are in .5 increases... and the max psi is 2

Its actually bars that its measuring, not psi.  At 2 bars, thats like 29.4 Lbs of boost.  Some cars actually go beyond this though.

I believe the escudo (in real life) pushes like 45 Lbs PER ENGINE.  He still cant beat Rod Millen's tacoma up the peak.  (10:15)

Anyone else agree that BrianCNorton should be nominated as the Technical Advisor for this forum?  Anyone?

He's got my vote!  :thumbsup:
