Well my red will be here next week, I was wondering what is a safe psi to run ?
I dont care about pushing the turbo to its max, I want to be safe, and I want my 06 MR to last.

I have the following mods to date

AMS TBE
AMS FMIC
AMS LICP
K&N filter
Megan 02 housing
injectors 880's
AEM wideband
boost controller.

 

Bro you made a similar post already. Pump your fine running anywhere from 20-27psi. At least 25+ to wake the turbo up.

 

you can run 32 to 84.2 psi and be allright.

that will really "wake up" your turbo =) and your neighbors too!

=)

 

All in the tune...you should be fine in the 27/28 peak psi range on 93, but again it will depend on your car and tune...

 

get a good tuner first , then hill add more boost if ur motor can handle it

ive seen mellon do 30pounds on 93pump , its all about the correct mods , and good a tuner

 

dammm that will wake me up :lol

 

Tune and fuel octane will govern the amount of boost you can run.

 

Cams would really help as well....

 

and head studs

 

kelford 280's son ftw!

 

How about gsc s1's

 

will the bottom end be safe besides the head studs?

 

Add E85 to your mod list if you really want to get your money's worth out of the new turbo.

I would not worry about the head studs. Our engines don't grenade from boost, they grenade from knock. You've heard it before, and its true: It's all in the tune.

 

i just got my tuned and i am at 26 psi and my tuner said i can probably do a couple more pounds but you definitely need some cams and headstuds to be safe and maximize the potential
