what boost levels for my setup?

[vinh766]

here are my mods:
big 16g
dejon UIC piping
Greddy Type S Bov
3000gt 190lph Fuel pump
denso 550 injectors
supra SMIC
a/f and boost gauge
and managing it with:
2g obdII datalogger
newest version of the MAf Tranlator
Oh! and i run 93 octane

my question is, for anyone who has a similar list of mods like mine, i was just wondering what kind psi numbers you guys were running? i know all cars are different and that all i have to do is actually log my car and tune the maf accordingly to get the full potential of my setup w/o causing too much stress on it, but im asking because my 550 injectors are on the way along with my datalogger setup. so i was just curious to see what you guys were running with something like this, before i actually install my stuff and start tuning. and for those who are good with guesstimating, could you tell me what i'd be looking at ?(psi wise, and maybe a rough horsepower range wise too )

I have the same setup, but i still have the stock intercooler. I've been getting away with 15psi and the egt's have gone no higher than 1500.

just curious, what do the guys running 20 lbs on a big 16g have that i would need?

You want the lowest boost that will make the most power.

How did you get the dejon tool upper pipe? I've been looking for it fo a while they told me they stoped making it?

Use the logger and answer your own question.

i was hoping somebody woudn't say that. ok, for example, how much hp do you think i would be making (to the wheels) at lets say 18psi? like for example, for the guys with big 16g's, what's ur hp at 18psi? i mean, at least you can answer that right? or maybe tell me urs at 20 or 22 or watever ur running at right now.

and about that dejon UICP, it was on the car when i bought it.

I bought mine about four months ago

Just so you know, most of the folks on here are not big into bench racing, myself included. Your power will depend on the state of the car, mods, and tuning.

Please take the extra 2 keystrokes and type out "yours" as well. This isn't AIM Tuners.
