Its like MORNING dude!!

The VF series probably need to stay below 1.4 bar as the blades are fragile.

Also, boost is dependant on fuel, ignition and knock. Need to check for knock/det if raising boost past what it was mapped for.

My VF35's on 1.4 bar, which I also heard is about the limit of what you can sensibly run on it.
