Hi all,

I have a MY95 WRX, I think the bost level may be a little low?

It boosts to 15psi then holds at 13/13.5psi, is this normal?

I have a K&N induction, Magnex DP, center and BackBox, running on optimax. ECU reset also completed.

Boost seems a little low to me?

Cheers

Paul

I think the import don't boost as high as the UK cars, or at least that what someone told me.

Mine (MY00) boost to 1.1 bar then drops back to 1 bar, then dips down at high revs, 6k plus.

Hope this helps...

My 95 WRX - SS BB, ITG Panel Filter and Optimax - is boosting to about 1.1BAR initially and then dropping and holdin at about 0.85 - 0.9 BAR.

Not sure if that will help you!
