I could'nt find what I was after

just purchased a new manuel boost controler, and need to know whats safe to run on

GC8 99 MY00

Mods:
Pod filter
3" Turbo back exhaust

and thats all

16psi max
anymore and the ecu will shut it down for you

id put it in 15, coz with a manual controller it will spike, i had mine set a 16psi with a manual boost controller in my old rex and itd spike to 17 or even go higher and i would get boost cuts badly, hit it at the drags once. So if you put it on 15 it may only spike to 16. Just to be safe as well 15 would be best.

how about, u do the right thing and get an ecu instead of leaning out your engine with a manual boost controller..... Not only can u run more boost, its also safer!

I do not see why his engine will be leaning out with a MBC set to 15 or 16 psi

cause its still putting in the same ammount of fuel that it would if it was set to stock 14psi boost, also like stated above they sometimes spike. If you are gonna do something, do it right, fork out for an ecu and tune. That way u can run more boost alot safer.

It'll dump more fuel dude, ecu's aren't that stupid.

He's right though, running an ecu will be safer. But even still, running it at 15psi will be fine.

Get a Electronic Boost Cut Defender... and wind it up to 17psi... He He He

lol yer just puts all the parameters out and ecu will adjust to the boost to a certail level but as said best way to go about it is run a ECU.. those manual boost controllers are dodge and u will find that u will run different ammounts of boost in different gears...

i just brought a 99wrx and was thinking of putting up the boost but i may just leave it stock as i can't afford computer for a long time. Whats standard boost? sorry for thread hijack a bit
