[QUOTE=coolgavin97]Hi guys,
Could anyone tell me what is the standard boost PSI for My98 WRX? And what is the safe boost if I want to boost up. The only mod I have is the intake and exhaust.
Thanks![/QUOTE]

I had a MY98 with exactly the same mods as you and my boost gauge read 14.5psi

i think the standard for a my98 is 13.5 psi

And [I]you[/I] would know.... Mr psi....

its just under 1 bar 14.3 psi or something very close

Hi Prodigy, did your WRX running the standard boost at 14.5psi? or did you boost up already? If 14.5psi is the standard, its pretty high, isn't it?

Mine was stock standard except the exhaust and CAI. 14.5 psi should be pretty much the norm for a standard MY98..
