Your question makes me nervous. If you have your hand on a boost controller right now don't touch it! How much boost are you tuned for now?

I see another 'I blew my engine" thread coming on. Seriously dude put the MBC down whatever you are tuned, just keep it there.

22 is plenty! Adjusting it without retuning or doing some more mods is not worth the risk.

I think you could but you wouldn't really be getting anything out of it.
