I got a MBC, boost gauge, 1G BOV, A K&N Filter Charger, and a Dejon tool upper intercooler pipe. Can I raise the boost to 15 psi or should I set it lower or maybe even a little higher? The only thing i think i might need is a turbo back exhaust. Do i need to rewire the fuel pump? How much HP would the above upgrades give me? thanks for all the help, thanks...Matt
 
You're definetely safe to turn up the boost.I would say 15 is the max to go to,as thats what I've read pretty much everywhere.Do the FP rewire,and if you can get a upgraded FP and fuel injectors.Do a search for what would be best for you.And definetely get a Pocketlogger so you can keep track of whats goin on in the motor,and set your boost according to what the motor seems to like.I'm at about 13-15# right now,depending on how cold it is at the time.I have yet to do the rewire myself,but that will be done soon.:).And my Pocketlogger will be here hopefully Tuesday.Whoo Hoo!!
