    Again it has nothing to do with it being aftermarket, bigger, etc.  If
it's set-up to an 850 kg/hr-4.7 volt curve (as stock) then all you have to
do is get close to 850 kg/hr and it's pegged.  The 73mm may flow 1000 kg/hr
of air, but if it's only set up to meter 850kg/hr at peak voltage, it's no
use at full flow.

I only get about 4.3-4.4 volt on my 260 hp 3.2L.  I don't get near 5 volt,
but you wouldn't want to anyway.  You don't want to run it right up to the
peg, it's hard to tune that way.  4.5 volt is probably about all you would
want to run at.

get a datalogger and find out for sure :)
