i would recomend 7-8 and if you are going to run a ebc have a high boost setting at 10 and only use when needed

 

[Rogue]

what's stock MSP run? 6psi?

 

[Rogue]

figure i'd my 4000th post in my own thread. yay for me.

I won the DEFI EGT on ebay. now I just need to get a matching boost gauge.

 

[kcbhiw]

Can I borrow your EGT?

Awsome! Thanks!

 

[Rogue]

yeah, just don't break it....it's $150

That's it? Is that the new price or used price? Log on to AIM once in a while.

Is 10 psi all a stock MSP motor can handle???

 

[Rogue]

some people run 12 daily, but that's pushing it.

 

[wingman0]

wow I figgered that the msp motors could hold as much as the GTX B6T's. The GT/X's can hold 16 psi with minor mods. "but that's also pushing it"

 

[Rogue]

no, the MSP uses stock internals. Stock = weak

 

[kcbhiw]

The B series engines out of the box are significantly stronger and more tolerant to "sloppy tuning" than the FS series.

 

[JDM-P5]

Wow...this is getting good.

Ebay IS your best friend.

 

[Rogue]

that's where I got my EGT. I'll be getting my turbo timer and EBC from there, too. Other stuff I'll try to get from forum members. I've also talked to Cullen (**********) and Ken (Protegegarage).

 

[JDM-P5]

Word....then all your bases are covered!

 

[fLyPiNoY7]

thanx for the reminder. I'll need the MSP radiator to use with the SMIC. Will my stock fans not work with the MSP radiator and intercooler? How hard is it to wire in the slimlines?

from what ive heard, the a/c fan (on the passenger side) wont fit...but the more and more pics i see, im thinking its the driver's side fan that wont fit...

im starting to look at ebay for low profile fans for my setup...i found 12" fans for $20 each...tempted...

are you saying the MSP fans are different from the stock P5 fans?
