Ehgriez Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 not a terrible price, should fit them yourself though be much cheaper, and then you learn stuff.

Topaz Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 So you have a boost controller then? leave it at or under 0.8bar if you have a standard ceramic turbo. A new intercooler and exhaust have the potential to increase general flow and/or decrease flow resistance and will give a little extra power regardless of boost. I made that up like the moon landing... Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/272466-how-much-boost-can-i-set-my-car-at/#findComment-4626574 Share on other sites More sharing options...

R32 Driver Posted May 30, 2009 Share Posted May 30, 2009 1 bar is 14.7 psi most people run 11-12psi on the standard to make it last any more and its running on borrowed time If that price is fitted its not to deer you will however need a ecu whether it be piggyback or full ecu then a tune Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/272466-how-much-boost-can-i-set-my-car-at/#findComment-4626791 Share on other sites More sharing options...
alpinestars Posted May 31, 2009 Share Posted May 31, 2009 12psi is borderline but fuel cut may kick in so would opt to get a safc or pfc so power is linear Link to comment https://www.sau.com.au/forums/topic/272466-how-much-boost-can-i-set-my-car-at/#findComment-4626924 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Topaz Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 Mines been running 1 bar for about a year and it has been running strong Then you are both pushing it and lucky. Some cars have been tuned up and blow a turbo (or the engine totally) within a week.

blazed180 Posted June 3, 2009 Share Posted June 3, 2009 get it tuned might cost a bit, but in the long run if you break it, it will cost a lot more.
