Dawes Device
HI
Was thinking of purchasing a dawes device and was wondering if theres any way of setting it for extra boost on my93 WRX without using an AFR meter?
Im only after a bit more torque so whats the easiest way to do this?

It would be highly foolish to install a Dawes without preferably knock link or at least an AFR. The chances of destroying your engine are high, particulalry on an import.

Ive got an my93wrx with a dawes fitted. Im running about 15psi, just enough to keep me under the fuel cut, which i believe is about 15.5psi Not had a problem with it up to now, i would say go get one ...u can feel the difference.

you can do it without a boost gauge, an AFR, a knock link etc etc etc without any problems whatsoever.
the monitoring equipment is there for the day you get a crap batch of fuel, a high inlet temp, a boost hose come loose or wastegate stick open.
15 psi should be safe for your car, but you do need to monitor it really.
