What PSI to run? Stock 6 bolt bottom/50 trim w/ sup. mods

project_tsi · 06-26-2005, 10:22 PM

I would like to know what is a safe PSI to run at for my daily driver. Mods will be as followed. Gas will be 93 octane everyday. Tuning will be w/ Palm pilot, Maf Translator, and S-AFCII. Basically Im wondering what is safe for a stock 6 bolt bottom end. Will 22-23 psi be fine daily on 93 oct? I think this would be a good overall setup, just need to know what to push for a DD. Thanks for all the help.

I'm not trying to sound like an asshole but I don't think you can ask that, Maybe you can get an estimate of the boost level, But anyone telling you a set psi you can run should not post. You need to log the car, And have it tuned. You can't just turn the boost up to what someone else thinks you can run, Just because they run that amount or they know someone that knows someone that their friends friend ran that set psi.

I know exactly what you mean, and that thought crossed my mind while I was posting. I should have posted it better. I know theres no exact PSI to run on my car, everyones car is a little different and will react different to the way that I tune things. I just need to know what can a 6 bolt bottom end take daily running 93 octane, like a max SAFE PSI. I know that stock 6 bolts have seen 450 hp but i have no idea what PSI they are running. So, sorry the confusion and help me out. Thanks again, Dan
