6 psi is less than standard, so its no wonder it feels a bit slow! Get it set up to run proper boost.

Standard is about half a bar or ~ 7-7.5 psi. get it set up by a good tuner, you'll easily run 15-18 psi. Big difference then.

You havent had it set up and you are pushing it ??? I would get it set up first otherwise it will end in tears

I bet you nearly pissed yourself when you read this

seriously mate, I know fook all about cars, engines, sprockets and flange wassers but it sounds to me like your taking some advice of people that probably know as much as I do

a little knowledge is dangerous chap for the sake of the hard work you have done to date with the donkey work take it to a pro and get it sorted

If you've only just rebuilt it the first thing I would recommend before going too far, is run the fucker in!!!!

As said fella, get it set up properly, you may cause lots of damge if not.

Plus they will make the most of you work and you'll be smiling all the way home with saxo's blown into the weeds.

Where are you based, peeps may be able to recommend a good tuning place local to you.

I had a two stage boost, 7psi, and 17psi, oh baby, when I flicked the switch, life moved very quickly in deed i miss the sensation of a turbo
