1.1 bar and the max the td04 will produce is 280bhp

What are you trying to achieve?

around 260bhp is my goal, becouse I just bought it and dont have money for serious mods.

now is ok but befor impreza I had legacy 92 with 260bhp.

I like the response now , but it all ends about 5000rpm, would it be better if i boost it up??

i would be very carefull raising the boost above standard via a boost controller because you are not altering timing or fuel to suit, if you do you will run lean and most likey melt a piston! save your pennies mate and get a apexi pfc mapped by andyf,full decat,walbro fuel pump and a good air filter, that way you will have plenty more bhp and torque and most of all it will be reliable!!!!

It's 99% safe to fit a decat exhaust on it's own, that will help release a few more hp........ i had my car decatted for three years with extreme use before i changed the turbo and got a tek 3 remap...... changing the exhaust to most is the first step towards horsepower gain, not uping the boost.....
