am i going to get detonation or a higher amount of pinging or is this going to be OK.

Ocassionally spiking to 12-14psi (it's just a boost tap and $ 50 gauge

It's in a Stagea and from what i have heard stock stagea ecu's run rich and like a dog anyway so i think she should be ok...

it will be alright, you just get alot of power loss, and shabby power curve. which always brings you back to why bother trying to run more boost at all.

if you want performance get an ecu and be done with it, i say.

power loss???...bwahahaha...it's fantastic! sure, the power curve probably looks like shieet but she has plenty more go after 2500 rpm than before! Before when you stalled her up you got this huge amount of lag untill you hit 'high boost mode' from the factory solenoid...it was craptacular

exhaust and computer will come after tax-back too...i just need moolah.

It should be fine in terms of pinging. As to how much power you make, that depends.

Once you go above the airflow that the ecu recognises, it goes ultra rich and retards timing to about 8-9 degrees. Keep in mind that you idle at about 10 degrees, so that means once you hit r + r, you get shitall power

    • Ha ha, that is very true!  I'm too scared to leave it in the position though, it tingles my balls seeing it like that!
    • Which one did you buy? I have always wanted a decent inspection camera but have been unable to tell whether something is cheap junk or cheap junk chunk sold at just a bigger markup
    • Ha ha ha! I know those feels mate I've finally got the garage cleared enough that next weekend I'll do some actual work on my car (hopefully). Unfortunately garage isn't usable after 10am at the moment That said, I've done a lot of work this weekend on helping finalise a friend's Production Race car. Full started Christmas Eve. We're down to about 8 tasks on the list, including "get a wheel alignment". Sometimes it's just easier working on someone else's car or project than our own stuff 😛
    • Ha ha, ended up going it alone.  I just sent it (in a very nervous fashion).  Once I'd released the locks and it didn't automatically start spinning out of control i felt a bit more confident.   It made some loud sounds (cracking and creaking noises) when I first spun it which got the heart rate going again!  I couldn't bring myself to leave it tipped on the side.  I feel a bit more comfortable having back right side up while it sits there. I'd get angry with your last point but you're 100% correct! 😅 Even yesterday I managed to distract myself at numerous times to make a bracket to fit an LED flood light off the back of the house and fix my sons pushbike.  There were other little taks nibbling at my brain for the rest of the day too...
    • Probably one of the more nerve wracking experiences of my entire life! 😂😂 The balance (centre of gravity) is out still but in a direction that gives me comfort!   It's quite bottom heavy still meaning it takes a bit of muscle to rotate it.  The plus side of that is that it wants to to go back to upright.  Better that than wanting to go all stranded turtle on me!
