without a remap and a knocklink and a check with a wideband safely would be standard boost..

Then you already have it set at its optimum level. Unless of course you've since upgraded the turbo, intercooler, etc...

So if you up the boost then the remap will be worthless. .you should have gone for more boost when you had it mapped.. what boost is it running now?
