I already tried searching,,, I just got my IC and piping upgrade for my stage 0 zpi turbo kit,, i have 650 injectors, greddy emanage ultimate walbro 255 fuel pump and now finally an in tommorow im taking it to get dyno tuned, what should i have them set the boost at for normal driving??? would 9 or 10 be ok? or should i just see what they have to say etc....? Please Help.

 

i've heard no more than 9.5 on stock internals

 

Engine is capable on stock internals to handle consistant 15lb boost, but i would do that. Normal street drive, i would leave it around 5-6 and have a boost controller so when u wanna push it, to around 9-10lb. all depends on the tune

 

I personally run 10 daily on a conservative street tune. I would aim for about 9 to 10 psi for daily driving but let ur tuner tell u if it is safe or not. If u want a little more traction in the lower gears then I would say go with 6 or 7 psi.

 

yeah, exactly. i run at 10psi daily and traction in 1st and 2nd gear at anything more than half throttle is nonexistant

 

8 to 10 psi, but you upgraded to a stage 1 so i assume you a have bov right?

 

8psi tuned perfect on stock

 

8-9 pounds is ball park

 

Ok i got my car tuned last night at Pina Motorsports, for some reason my boostcontroller didnt work to well think i need to tap a closer sport to exit of turbo,, but anyways had to keep it at 8psi spring pressure and it dynoed at 265whp 260tq and now it feels like a totally different car its fast! :D

 

Those are excellent numbers for a 16g at 8psi.

Good job! I hope you're enjoying the ride.

 

hahah nice man its sucha good feelin

 

...it must be nice, one day i will boost this car

 

^^^ haha dont give your hopes up .. i planned on going NA hint the name but then i ended up getting a bottle for a really low price but the power wasn't just enough for me so now im BOOSTED on a t-netics kit .. feels great !!

 

If you don't have a boost controller, you're stuck at whatever your wastegate is preset at.
