Whats max psi
 
Dose anyone know if it is safe to run a standard impreza 2000 on 16 psi

suBruce 18 July 2011 12:27 PM

If its a turbo then yes very safe.... mate runs 30 sometimes, 24 and thats safe

30 psi? 2 bar? hope its been fully rebuilt to run that. 24 psi is pretty high for a standard engine (1.6bar is)

standard uk engine you prob dont wanna go too much higher than 1.4bar peak circa 20, anything higher than that and your pushing it.

:brickwall

Just over 2bar? He must be running a serious set-up.



Things to consider Ant; Turbo and more importantly fuelling. I'm not familiar with what the UK's run as standard.

Have to say i assumed it was being mapped, as said don't just up the boost without getting it sorted properly

Mine eventually seemed tired after running >2 bar for the last year, a big blower is easier to map safely than a tidgy one at breaking point...
