Hi, I am sure this has been answered somewhere, but I need help on what to do and expect on raising boost to 17psi.
From my understanding, the stock computer/turbo/internals can handle up to 17-17.5psi. Now, I was looking at buying an AEM Boost Controller, a Turbo Smart Fuel Cut Defender and put in a Down Pipe (I already have a 3" CAT Back Exhaust and an Intake). So: 1. Will I need anything else? 2. What kind of Power Increase can I expect? 3. Will the car remain Reliable? Kindly let me know. Thanks. |

For 17psi (1.1bar) you wont need anything. 17.4psi or there abouts is the standard fuel cut. As long as the car is mechanically sound you will be fine although you may occasionally hit fuel cut in certain conditions
Fuel cut defenders are best avoided. All they do is **** with your car...those things are deadly. I wouldnt fit one if you payed me. If that is your only mod (other than the ones you mention) I recon you'll be lucky to make 300BHP at best if your car is in perfect working order. -------------------- |
