        This is from the CART rule book from 2003...if it changed for 2004, I don't know, and what it converts to in lbs of boost


        9.5.4A.1. The allowable intake manifold pressure shall be limited to a
        maximum pressure of forty-one and a half (41.5) inches of mercury
        absolute for road and street course events for the 2003 season. The
        allowable intake manifold pressure shall be limited to a maximum pressure
        of thirty-nine (39) inches of mercury absolute for oval events for the 2003
        season.

            41.5 inHg = 20.38 psi
            39 inHg = 19.15 psi

              Wow...they've lowered it a bit, then. Used to be that the motors ran upwards of 60psi of boost!
