Going for prodrive chip soon.Need to know what i can wind boost upto when i`ve left their building?All standard at the mo bar Magnex and filter.

 

What chip are you going for? What model year is your car?

I believe there may be better options for you if you are then wanting to increase boost.

Edit - sorry just seen your other post. The PPP "chip" on the MY01/02 is only a boost increase, so all you need is a fuel cut defender if you are going to continue using the Dawes. But you have to be disciplined and informed about the sensible limits.

John,thanks for replying so quick.Does that mean that they dont actually do anything else bar lift the boost and fuel cut?If i get fuel cut lifter what can i raise boost to?
Will i need RR after applying more boost?

17 PSI would be sensible. HKS FCD allows you to raise the fuel cut to say just under 20 PSI.

Of course you don't get the warranty if you do it this way.

Sorry to be a pain John,but after FCD and lets say 17psi boost,how can i raise boost past this?What will i need to achieve lets say 18/19psi?Is the fueling ok at this level?

 

A manual boost controller - eg Dawes (£36) or just change the size of the restrictor on the turbo outlet. The fuelling will be fine up to and beyond 19 PSI most likely, but the problem is heat and back pressure from the turbo - best stick to about 17 PSI for safety IMHO.

 

Thanks again John!Youve just saved me a small fortune.
