ok, im new to all this turbo talk, but my question is how do i adjust the amount of boost on my turbo, i know factory guages are never very acurate, will i need to install a more acurate aftermarket guage? and how many lbs can i run the t25 at safely? can this be increased by running a thicker guage wire at the fuel pump? 8 or 10 ga maybe? and does a turbo timer have the same effect as idling the engine for a couple minutes before turning off or does it just keep the turbo moving? any tips or tricks will be greatly apreciated. i apologise for the questions as they are probably dumb but i am new to turbos and am trying to learn.. thanks all

You'll need an aftermarket boost gauge to get an accurate boost reading. Then you'll need a boost controller to adjust the boost pressure. The most you should run on a T25 is 15lbs. Anything after that is just hot air. A turbo timer keeps the whole engine running. Go here for the path you should follow when upgrading
