Hi,

Need some advice, I am about to increase the boost to 1.1 bar on MY99 uk turbo. Mods I currently have are below:

Decat centre
Hayward and scott BB
Forge dump valve
ITG panel filter

Will it be safe to increase the boost with just these mods?

Some one mentioned I get colder spark plugs!(whats that mean?)

Thanks

Ryan

If you have a boost gauge you can safely increase the boost to 1.1 bar on this model with your mods as long as there are no faults. Consider a knocklink for peace of mind.

Ryan, yes colder spark plugs would be a good idea.

Something like the HKS Iridium from BR Developments.
