People seem to have different idea's on "limits".

Not long ago, 18 pound (1.3 bar) was the ABSOLUTE limit that most modders would do as it was believed that any higher would result in motors exploding, fast forward to now and the new "standard" seems to be 20 pound (1.4 bar).

There are a few users out there who are pushing out up to 30 pound (2.0 bar).

I'd be speaking to the few people on this forum who are really pushing the limits and asking what supporting mods they are running and what knowledge they have to give in terms of "limits".

After all, the simple thing rule on modding is.. You play... you pay..

So true i remember 17-18psi being the limit now i see most people getting tuned 1.4-1.5 bar on 205's they seem to be handling it well aswell.
