Re:if an fmu safe enough to get me home?
Yes, of course it will. The less you boost, the better, but there have been plenty of people to have used FMU's at low psi levels with success. Just don't push your luck. ;) I would say 8psi max on an FMU.

to be even more careful you can take out the wastegate spring (if its an external gate)
im not sure if you can disable an internal gate...but just try not boosting and you will be fine |
Re:if an fmu safe enough to get me home?
now i know this may sound really stupid but is there any way i can make sure to stay under the 8psi? (i dont have a boost control) but like i said i am getting a chip
