is it okay to drive an untuned turbo at 5psi?
Everyone says that they do a stage zero untuned, and boost all day... but why cant you with a custom stage zero kit with a turbonetics turbo? Is it soley because the turbo is too big? IF so, what is the cut-off for the turbo being "too big" for a stage zero?
its the extra cfm that a larger turbo flows, i couldnt say really what the "cut off" would be but i say better safe than sorry. honestly you can run boost without tune but it IS a gamble, too many risks to take. just remember it only takes one good knock to blow your piston out of your oil pan.
