C450 boost pressure

Just something I'm really curious about, do you knowledgeable folks know how much the boost pressure is actually used in the C450? Supposedly it's "increased" compared to the C400, but by how much?

Thanks,
AP E63

This is pure fun speculation. If you assume the C43 designation means something like equivalent NA displacement. 3.0/4.3= .697 and then .697*15psi = 10.5psi boost. Any of the tuning companies can chime in and give us the real figure.

Interesting, that would be equivalent to 4.8l NA. I guess their naming nomenclature has nothing to do with equivalent displacement.

It hasn't for a few years now I believe.

That's what happens when you let sales, marketing, and business majors drive decisions. ;-)
