[boo ya speed]

im boosting 13lbs and holding at 11 no other mods besides intake buying the fmic soon if anyone wants to know how i set it just ask and ill post it

 

[Dr.Sound]

free up the exhaust......
13 psi seems like a lot without supporting mods.

 

[boo ya speed]

yeah... im getting the fmic this month plus the next mod for me is the turbo back that should help a lot ill have it done by nthe end of next month just waiting for corksports turbo back to come out

 

[Dr.Sound]

be careful with 13lbs of boost with out fuel management

I'd run 9-10 steady tops without supporting mods

how much did it run you?

 

[boo ya speed]

I installed it myself so just price of ebc 340 cause i overnighted the damn thing then i programmed my self as well was pretty easy. only problem it spools up slow any suggestions on how i can spoil up faster im thinging of getting a dp and hollowing cats soon if that turbo back isnt up and going soon

 

[Dr.Sound]

slow spool-up is because of 2 cats....

 

[boo ya speed]

omg we have 2 cats? i never looked at thew damn thing yet WTF yeah im gonna buy a new pipe VERY soon now

 

[Dr.Sound]

i think a downpipe should be your next mod.
get catless, or one with a hi-flow cat.

i have 2.5" with a 2.5" Magnaflow hi-flow cat.
spool up is very quick.

i used to have catless DP, then welded a hi-flow cat.
didnt notice any difference in spoolup time.....although i did loose a little less than a 0.5 of psi.

 

[boo ya speed]

yeah im gonna go buy a catless dp right now any suggestions?

 

[Dr.Sound]

apex, coksport, ION....

Secondly, 13psi is really high without all the supporting mods, be careful.

I wouldn't go over 10psi to play it safe, even 10 can be kind of scary.

 

[acidbug]

i have seen numerous mazdaspeeds in NJ blow up @ 13-15psi!

Be very careful!

As these guys are sayin, be very careful with the upped boost. I've been running 14psi for quite a while and after installing the AVC-R, I upped that .1 bar so I'm hittin about 17psi. Unfortunately(or fortunately, depending on your outlook), I can't drive for long distances due to the fact I'm still recovering so I haven't been able to put my foot in it at 17psi for too long of a time.

BUT this forum is the prime example of "just because he did it, doesn't mean I can". If you are not willing to take the chance of blowing a motor to pieces, I'd suggest stepping it down. There's a guy here who blew his motor at stock boost due to his driving so again, every car & driver will be different. Don't think just because Discreet or I publically talk about having high boost (I know quite a few more on here are that high too, they just dont say anything) that it's okay for everyone.

 

[t3ase]

By the way, if you're running an EBC and you boost spikes up to 13 and then "holds" at 11, you need to tune the settings further. There's a thread somewhere on here explaining Profec settings & gains and all kiindsa stuff.

circuit sport = protosport i thought?

set your start boost up closer to where your peak boost is, then at 15% gain, I get the fastest spool without spiking. Easily as fast as stock spool and I have no other mods except intake
