I wish you would go to the board! Evo actually makes its 271 hp (230-240WHP) at 16.24psi! The 19psi which you are talking about hits at 3500 RPM for that boost, quick spool up time, and to create that 274lbs of torque! The 16.24psi comes in at 6500-7300(Redline is 7k..Fuelcut is 7300) where the 271 hp is being made!! The car has been running this forever, and is reliable as heck and is it's "sweet spot"!!! Personally i have more respect for a N/A car, cuz any old "Joe" can slap on a turbo, but the Evo deserves its props! It's a full blown race car... something you won't see to often in any other companies! The NSX, Supra, RX7, Rx8, etc. all have luxery to stop its preformance while the Evo is as stripped as it gets..more like the ITR!!!
