a series 2 with GRS intercooler? its at 15psi at the minute, could i get away with a wee bit more? Oh as the car has a piper 285t2 cam, will the cam be better suited as its designed to be used with higher boost?

cheers,

paul

 

nothing safe really if it isnt tested,

 

well the egine and turbo are dead on as far as i know and the car has been setup as well. Was just wondering if the engine could take a couple of psi more?

 

What Gareth means is that if you up the boost, you need to make sure the fuelling can cope, else it will run lean and could melt something - it's not really wise to up the boost and 'see if it's okay' ....... it will have been setup for the boost it's currently running.

 

thanks bill

 

If the tuner has set it at that point it means that is the most boost they are prepared to run on your engine. You may be able to eek a little more out of it but it could all end in (expensive) tears

Chat to some tuners and see what they suggest to give you that extra hit

 

mines similar spec running 18psi through proper fucked standard turbo

by fucked i mean play in and out and up and down and round and round. Any movement possible it does it

Still flys tho

NMS setup too

Get a proper tuner to check it out first to make sure it doesnt go BANG

The tuner has set it up to be very safe. I've been told by a few people that running like 17-18psi will be fine. Just wanted to check first.

 

Should be ok as mine is running 18psi but dont just up it yourself, pay out for a tune up and get it done by a pro

Scott

 

oh yeah i would do that! Me tuning = fiddle, fiddle, snap! - bugger!!! then later - whommmppppp- BANG!!!!!!!

 

pmsl.

I didn't run 18 on mine till I went low comp. But I know several peeps that have. Just be carefull and don't be too suprised if it does go pop at some point.

 

shit, forgot mines sposed to be low comp too, not entirely sure but i think it is cause it aint gone bang yet
