Exclamation Is this safe?

1.2 bar boost on a MY96 Sti with green panel filter and full de-cat? I am showing just one green light on Knocklink at high revs and always run on Optimax + Millers.
Fitted a Blitz boost controller yesterday as I had only been making 0.8bar before - I was told standard was about 1.1bar and 1.2bar should be safe - any advice or experiences out there?

Cheers

Have an Stiv3 running 1.31 bar on optimax. Full decat, green panel filter otherwise bog standard.
I race the car hard in hillclimbs to 8200 regularly and so far(!) all it great. I have a Blitz boost contoller fitted (by Power Engineering) to keep it steady. For 3 months it ran at 1.6 bar.....and survived.
Oh, and i don't use booster in the fuel.
hope this helps, 911

Thanks 911 - put my mind at ease - although only one green was showing I kept thinking that maybe the knocklink was faulty or something!
