im sure the PPP runs at 1.1bar but adding a boost controller and turning up the boost isnt a good idea considering you mention "you " are going to fit and turn up the boost :eek: new engine time!!! as if you need to ask about boost settings you shouldnt be doing it

dude i had no intensions of doing it as quite rightly as you put it if i have to ask i should not do it, i plan on doing no engine mods or performance upgrades as what is on the car is fine as it is. i think you have miss understood i want to make it safer for me as i thought if htese two devises were fitted i would be able to make sure the car was not over boosting and the fact i was not doing any damage by not leaving it to run long enough after it has been driven so i dont need a new engine.

what i should of said is what are the gains of fitting one or is it a waste of cash as they are not expensive but not cheap either.

the same goes for the turbo timer are they a waste of cash or are the money well spent.

turbo timers are only for people with no patience!
