Ok so before my car died my boost gauge at the most i ever noticed read about .9 bars. calculated thats about 13 psi. i bought an upgraded ct26 with a larger compressor wheel from brashboy on ebay. im not sure what the wastegate is set at but this seems really high. i dont want to wreck anything internal and only want to run about 8 or 9 psi. also i have a custom 3 inch exhaust that i personally built with a high flow xlerator muffler with a single 3" inlet and dual 3" outlets. i know im running some major boost creep and am wondering how best to stop that and add some backpreassure to the turbo to slow freewheel.

Depends on where they were sold. US 2nd gen is only 7-8PSI. kindasad.gif


No its not. If your only getting 7-8psi, you either have a very restrictive exhaust, or the ecu is keeping you in low boost mode.
All stock 2nd gens should hit about 10-11psi stock.

USDM MR2's included? The MR2's I know around here were limited to 7-8PSI until they added an MBC.
Admittedly I have almost no experience with alltrac/GT4's but I know that the MR2's I know have this "problem".

Please help me out if you can cause I can barely hit 6PSI and I have no codes other than the speed sensor one we discussed caused by my not yet having fixed my speedo/speed sensor/ecu issue.

Its a safety feature so that people like you don't end up killing themselves or everyone around them.
