are you running a bigger engine & turbo?
IMHO you should be happy with the numbers you have, why would you want to run more boost. It seems like you are making enough hp for your set up. 98ctr

PS. im running 1.8 gsr eng. w/t3-t4 garrett .70 trim 550 cc injectors and lots of tunning.

That is one of the dumbest questions I think I've ever heard.

If you can't contribuite to the topic shut the ---- up. No one asked for your oppinion on that matter.

As for the real matter of this post, I would not recomend running more then 12 psi on stock internals, therefore the questione why would he want to run more boost on stock internals. He is making good power with what he has, there is no reason to put more stress on the motor for an extra 10-50 whp. Unless he does not care about the motor blowing. 98ctr

Yes I have. Not too proud with the time I ran. I ran 14.05 sec 1/4 mile @ 112 mph with a 2.2 sec 60'. I was not able to get enough traction in 1st, 2nd or 3rd gear with street 15" tires. Hope to do better as I learn how to drive the car with the turbo on it. 98ctr

Either your lying about your times or you really can't drive. I pulled a 2.1 60' and ran a 12.946 @ 112.9mph on 15" POS street tires in a GSR. You were obviously getting some traction to pull a 2.2 60'


That MPH is good for a mid 12. I don't know how you could have possibly manage a 14.

there could have been so many variations between your run and mine. Im not lying about my time, and im not a bad driver, but thats what had hapend and who knows what I could have done if I would have had other chances to run. That was my only time at the track since the turbo was installed. O well. 98ctr
