'ello all,

I'm looking for figures on what a standard and Prodrive MY01 WRX will boost through the gears, peak and sustained where relevant. Thanks.

MY01 with Prodrive PP: roughly 1.0 - 1.2 bar. Sometimes briefly see 1.3 bar in mine...

Cheers,
Gareth

Can hold 1.2 bar in 4th/5th on wide open throttle up to quite high revs (>5000?). In lower gears the pressure is normally lower (around 1.0 bar) because there is less load on the engine.

Saying that I accelerated hard uphill in 3rd yesterday and saw 1.3 bar before lifting. N.B. since Saturday I also have a full decat so my current figures may not be typical.

Cheers,
Gareth
