10psi
 
WINTER SETUP Currently 10psi with...
-3" TBE full custom
-fmic w/hardpipes, custom pipes corksport core (recirc stock bpv w/bov combo)
-unichip w/no boost controller
-injen converted to SRI
-never flashed
-stock crappy tune on unichip
-MAF is in normal location
I'm getting 10psi with ATP wga only

Last summer: 11psi with...
all above + MBC turned all the way down

Also tried unichip EBC and that did 8+psi with stock wga on low boost
and 13+psi with stock wga on high boost

This summer I'm going to probably put back on the MBC and try to stay at a little over 10psi

NOTE: this is with a POS stewart warner 15psi boost gauge which I can't say I trust 100%, but its probably really close to accurate.

car currently has 108,500 miles and runs beautifully daily driven (hard)

Nice do you ever have any problems out of your car???

I've had issues with fuel cut. All depending on the weather. Fuel cut with the new ATP wga is really good, won't hit cut unless it is below zero at full boost.

before I fixed the wga (the stock one was broken):
with the unichip at high boost (13+) I would hit fuel cut at anything below 50 degrees and it would hit fuel cut at any psi in freezing temps.

I got the wga fixed at the end of last summer and fuel cut has disappeared this winter. I'll see if it comes up this summer when I start pushing a little more boost, but really the car has run amazing. I've had it since new and its been a great running car.

basically the fuel cut does what its supposed to do.

My stewart warner boost gauge tells me I do. but the gauge is known to be less than 100% accurate. note all the other mods that I have, but yes, it hits 10psi on the gauge and settles to 9.5ish.

most people get around 8psi out of it. (from what I've heard multiple times)

Did you use a boost controller to reach 10psi or how did you do this?
