Dudes, WOW are these things fast!! Had no idea it would be this quick....when I first laid into it, it actually kind of scared me....then when I changed gears to third from second, followed by the first whoooooooosh!!! Sound of my blitz d drive BOV, I feel like I'm in love, lol, but I do have a question for you guys, I thought factory 205's were around 13 psi boost.......mine for some reason is hitting 17-18 in second 15-16 in third and 14-15 in fourth, and I believe the same in 5th, is this something to be mindful of, is it hurting my baby, or perhaps I lucked out and got a WRC motor! But I don't know the boost settings on that motor, so I don't know????? Any input from you brothers and sisters would be awesome,

from reading everything i dont exactly think there is something wrong. i easily hit 1.1 bar~16psi in every gear except 1st. mods- 3in from turbo all the way back and hks intake. the stock ecu is mapped for it so if you dont hit the fuel cut you should be good. the wideband O2 sensor that they asked about i think they were referring to is with a gauge to monitor your A/F ratio. if you had that it would tell you if you had any problems. as long as your not leaning out i dont see any problem with running those boost levels. the internals will take way more then what your giving it. by the way i totally agree with you on the its fast thing. my buddy has a built 180sx, cams, bigger turbo, front mount, full standalone the whole shebang. all that work and i can keep up with him with my retarded heavy st205 with an exhaust and intake. ive had it up to 180K/hr and dont have the balls to take it any farther but i havent even maxed out 3rd i always shift early and it just keeps pulling and pulling..... and pulling!! lol. i would say check your compressing to make sure you can handle the boost, a good set of plugs, maybe an upgraded intercooler heat exchanger and hang on for the ride.
