1.4 bars is the maximum you should go and only in the midrange. About 1.2 bars at 7.000 RPM is maximum without overreving the turbo. I usually go to 1.3 in the midrange, tapering to 1.1 bars at 7.000 RPM.

Mark.

I've been running mine at 1.4 midrange, and 1.2 topend, with numerous trackdays this summer. Not an issue.

They are rated to 1.7bar but you don't really want to go over 1.5bar unless you have modified your engine to take it.

I think Rich W runs 1.5 bar in the midrange in a UK car!!

Nutter!

Can anybody tell me whether a VF23 and a VJ23 are the same thing, if not, does anybody know the difference?
Thanks
