Possibly a question for the Wednesday thread, but I couldn't wait...
OK, so the general 'wisdom' says that boost != volume and that therefore x psi of boost from a small turbo isn't the same as x psi from a larger turbo. Obviously it is the volume of air that makes the difference, you can see that simply enough by fitting a larger turbo etc. However...
The part I don't get 100% is that, according the both the ideal gas law and incompressible fluid dynamics (dynamic pressure), the volume of flow is directly proportional to the pressure. In other words, the same pressure should always equal the same flow of volume(Assuming the aperture/port size is the same), you can't increase one without increasing the other in a linear way.
Deal brings HKS’ iconic ‘psssshhhht!’ turbo sound and boost gauges to iBoost 'The App That Makes Your Car Sound Turbo', enabling motoring fans to feel like their car has been tricked out with HKS performance gear.
The only explanation I can think here is that, the pressure at the port when the valve opens is dropping at a greater rate with a smaller turbo that has reached its volume limit. In other words, your boost gauge (referencing the plenum or piping pressure etc) might read say 14psi with both turbos, but the pressure at the valve itself is considerably different, with the larger turbo able to keep the pressure higher (Closer to the actual 14psi).
Am I totally nuts on this or is there something else going on that explains the deviation from what the regular equations say?

Best Value Mod
This is the best value you're gonna find for a car mod. Gave my Honda Civic 69 more horsepower. And you can always get yours and your passengers phones running it together. It just stacks! Once I had 4 phones going, and I was pushing 400 horsepower in my Civic! And for only $4 total!!
So much fun
I love this app. It sounds just like the blow off valve on my car. So much fun.
Sick
Best thing ever made. People ask me why? Because racecar
