How many pounds of boost is everyone running?

[christiansMSP]

What's the psi on your car..

I have hardpiping, forge bpv, custom fmic, injen cai.

I'm at nine pounds.. maybe 8

 

[theEZV]

turbolife/injen/j-pipe back/ss afc. still at 6psi. 7 in winter (no boost controller, stock wga)

 

[dandan2]

soo sig for mods on stock tune and 8 psi for now, forged motor and gt3071r turbo coming soon.

 

[christiansMSP]

4psi on a GT28RS. Forge WGA is controlling boost.

currently very close to stock, at stock boost (5.5psi) but thatll change soon...

T3/T4 50 trim in the mail, FMIC, 2.5" downpipe and electric cutout... probably will run 5.5psi with that as well.

and to the OP: i would stick with 8psi until you do a midpipe and get a tune.

I have 60 mm corksport, smic upgrade and hardpipes, greddy knock off bov, and forge bpv, pcv is gutted, and I have krank vents installed, car randomly runs anywhere from 5 to 6.5 lbs. I need to figure a couple of things out on it, but my gas mileage is up over 33 now, I still need to build the mil eliminator using the spark plug antifoulers (the 02 sensor bung is before the high flow cat on this exhaust, weird)

gt28 has more cfm (moves more air) so 4 on the 28 is like 7ish on a gt25

its capable of moving more CFM at redline. i recently learned me some good knowledge: the size of the snail doesnt matter until you outflow it at higher RPM, and the GT2554RS is a joke of a turbo... a 2.0L w/ 4 valves per cylinder outflows it at 5500 RPM or so. the disco potato is just warming up.

 

[SleepyMSP]

9psi (spike to 10 @ WOT)

CAI/FMIC/MAM Mani/Vibrant TBE/Unichip
