Getting my car setup next week and am not sure how much boost i should run..
At the moment is spikes to about 19psi but then only really holds about 16psi..
Spec:
Hiteq engine and quaiffe box, apexi itc, hks safr, blitz boost controller, fuel pump, fuel pressure regulator, front mount, standard injectors, standard turbo with 360 bearings, standard air flow meter..

Anyone know what a 'safe' boost level might be??
Thanks :wink:

1.2bar should be ok with that set up providing you get it checked on the road as well as on the rollers :wink:

I would run 1.2-1.3 bar with thoes kinds of mods should be good for 310-320bhp :D
