watch wideband AFR, EGT, set timing, don't spike, read the plugs, listen for knock and ping, then you should be ok

Well the guy who actually owns the crx is a imca racer and all around lead foot. He plans on ripping it the minute its turbo. A basemap has to be better than an fmu.

He'll be fine with a basemap. I've been ripping on mine at 11psi for like 8 months no problemo. I did however hook up a WB and I'm rich all across the board and I'm not detonating (det can detection) so I figure "give 'er hell."

1 pound of poorly administered boost can destroy your engine. Xenocrone has this ---- on lock but every car is diffrent. I would have it tuned so you dont blow your car up.

My 235k mile integra did just fine for months of rapeage on a xeno 11psi basemap until I sold it.

Re: How long does the average basemap turbo set up last?

My old hatch is still crusiing around with a basemap at 15psi......and an SSAC manifold. It's been at least a few years.

Most of my motors have blown because of lack of conservation. I just want to get the most power out of the ------- thing at one time rather than make it last for more than a week.
