Just about to take delivery of a boost controller and gauge, was wondering what was a safe level to set up for maximum boost under normal conditions???

Cheers

 

On my previous MY98 UK, i set my dawes to just below 1.1bar and didnt have any probs, my mate has had the car for over 6 months now with no probs(an he rags the **** off it)

sorry forgot to mention mine is MY98 uk, what is the standard boost on one of these btw?? and is 1.1 bar a maximum figure unless its going to santa pod!!

thanks

andy

 

.9 bar ish ?

 

mine 98 is at 1,3b without any boost contr....only full decat and some more fuel trough HKS AFR (compensating for Blitz SUS leaning the mixture)

 

I think fuel cut is at about 1.25 bar-1.1 seems to be a safe level+ allows for any change in temps(colder) which can raise boost levels with a manual boost control.

2 easy : yap...afaik cutoff should be at 1,25 but it never kicked in on mine 1,3b...well it is 1,3 on a cold morning and about 1,15 at +18c and about 1,05 at +25c...of course i'm talking about 5th gear...0,9 was before full decat
