Is it going to go Pop?

The previous owner has just replied to a text saying he has run 32 psi and it was fine, not sure what to think!

I'll almost guarantee he wasn't running 32psi, what spec is it?

Internally its completely standard no forged internally etc, its had the headers ported, has a TD05 turbo, IC standard.

Its 4th gear that is the problem, and it seems to be from when I had a cat added to pass an MOT and a VAC pipe was left off for a few hours and it was running badly.

Ive certainly seen 24 - 26 psi, and Ive backed off, its still going!

My idle hasnt been the smoothest either, and when started revs up to 1.5k rpm which its never done before either.

thats 1.6 bar .4 over safe boosting level although i have seen 1.5 but car had been mapped for that sort of range.

make sure all your vac pipes are fitted particually the ones on the waste gate and boost controller
