Hi, I am sure this has been answered somewhere, but I need help on what to do and expect on raising boost to 17psi.
From my understanding, the stock computer/turbo/internals can handle up to 17-17.5psi. Now, I was looking at buying an AEM Boost Controller, a Turbo Smart Fuel Cut Defender and put in a Down Pipe (I already have a 3" CAT Back Exhaust and an Intake). So: 1. Will I need anything else? 2. What kind of Power Increase can I expect? 3. Will the car remain Reliable? Kindly let me know. Thanks. |

What? Your worried about reliability yet wanna install a Fuel Cut Defender? That's stupid because the FCD will actually allow you to run higher than normal boost so with a boost controller set at 17 you will run the risk of going over that and there goes the reliability.
And you'll want to disable the TVSV to allow you to run full boost in 1st and 2nd gear. Also while it is said 3s' can handle upto 17psi stock, your chances of engine failure are still higher as it puts more pressure on all other engine components. |
