I dont want to blow aswell (doh!)
Hmmm... OK, took my car again on autobahn... and when keeping it floored, at 130mph my boost gets kinda high - 0.6 bar = 8.7psi
It's a D14A4 engine... with c/r 9.1
U think it's too much?
Keep in mind meh using FMU (10:1)!
Wastegate is already set to lowest possible setting (arm is already set for lowest boost).
Should I lower boost (change spring in wastegate)?
Don't really want to blow up this engine...
Kinda funny tho.. since when I installed all this I thought like 5-6psi would be more than enough.. and now I'm nearly at 9.. must be that 'boost happy' thingie kinda wanting me not to lower boost....
(sorry for blurry pic... but it's kinda hard to take a good pic while driving at 130mph!

Not detonating @full boost and have stock settings (guess lower c/r helps aswell as 98 octane gas in Europe - equals to 94 US).
As for 5th gear pulls... yeah.. guess I shouldn't keep it floored for any extended period of time
