without checking,, NOTHING is a safe amount of boost

if the car was mapped for 32 psi,, that is your limit and that what i run on the same sort of spec engine as yours

BTW, if it was mapped for 32 psi, and you have turned it down to 29, your engine will be running a little richer

 

i think u'd be better off speaking to ur tuner,cos people on here will argew all day long.....whats boost does it hold.????

 

about 27 psi

 

....well with no headwork done u'll have plenty of fuel,its down to the life of ur bottom end and turbo now...........i'd turn it back up....

 

anyone else??

 

Did you buy the chip direct from me or aquire it second hand?

 

you have an MSD chip.

Call MSD.

 

It was brought direct from you i believe stu

 

In that case, either:

1) Ask for the instructions that came with it.

2) Give me the serial number and engine spec and i will give you a close idea.

 

is the engine spec above enough to go on if i give you the serial number, car is still on standard fuel pump but has been rewired

 

whats wrong with using the phone nowadays?

 

Internet is free

 

maybe so, but you'd get the info you were after sooo much faster and without me posting

 

so thats how you got so many posts

 

i have ALOT less posts than many people on here - i dont post that much tbh

 

piss off then

 

Why? i like this thread

 

Yes but it dont solve my question does it, you could have called them for me by now and posted up the answer

 

could've, but you know, i'd be too bothered about giving you the wrong info and it causing your car to go wrong, so its safer i dont

besides, the time you've wasted replying to me, you could've called
