What brand is the exhaust/intercooler and is that price fitted.

[Ehgriez]

not a terrible price, should fit them yourself though be much cheaper, and then you learn stuff.

WOULD LOVE TOO but wouldnt have any idea wat too do.... and dont have the tools.......

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...

ahah thats gold lol

ceramic turbo? and o.8 how much is that in pounds?

[reNEGaDe88]

Run 16 psi and it will blow up, try 14 if u feel very lucky, or 12psi to be safe

........................... A steel wheel turbo...........................

1bar is about 15psi rule of thumb

how much is a steel wheel turbo?

and other cheap parts u know off?

[r31gtsxjspec]

if you like being adventurous set it to 16psi ...... mines been on that for over a year now limter love every day still going strong.. *touch wood*

[Ten Four]

Cheap performance = expensive repairs?

[R32 Driver]

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

[alpinestars]

12psi is borderline but fuel cut may kick in so would opt to get a safc or pfc so power is linear

[Douse]

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]

get it tuned might cost a bit, but in the long run if you break it, it will cost a lot more.
