Fixed at 1.1bar peak at 1.2 id say safely, but you would need something other than the PPP ecu to run these figures on a phase 1 engine (and a knocklink/lamba link).

I thought the PPP used a higher boost pressure than that...? Anyway, as long as you're monitoring for det with a knocklink, you should be able to go to 1.0-1.1 bar reasonably safely. Is it the standard turbo?

Hi Mate
Give Robert at Power Engineering a bell. PE are the only guys to offer a remap of your existing ECU. I organised a Group Buy through PE for TEK2/Phase2 remaps from 1997 - 2004 cars back in Jan.
My UK MY98 now runs a hefty 311BHP and 288LBF at 1.3Bar peak
Though most guys running 97 and 98 cars with full decat saw 280BHP and torque.
Mods
Uprated fuel pump and regulator (Lateral Performance £210)
VF24 Turbo (2nd hand £150)
440cc injectors using Pavlo's mounts (swapped them for a standard spoiler)
Full decat zaust (2nd hand stuff again)
KNi induction kit (£70)
AP organic clutch and RCM flywheel (only cos it was on the way out)
Intercooler has Samco hoses, air splitter, water spray and tilted.
Boost gauge, knocklink and AFR meters
Having some bearing problems with my gearbox atm but I think this is to do with wear and tear (increased due to extra performance) rather than the extra horses as all the gears are as new !
Cheers
Neal
