The mods are in my profile. I am still running the stock BOV (2g) and the BCS is not modded. The gauge is HKS mechanical (with like 10 feet of 1/4 in line). I just got a profec a not too long ago but dont want to put it in with the boost the way it is.
 
any gear goes to 1 bar at about 3k and stays there till about 6k and starts to drop. sometimes spikes to 1.1
 
Isnt stock boost 9 psi? I didnt know boost will go up that much when i free up some airflow. Is 14.5 the highest i can do with a t 25? Should i even install the Profec A or is it pointless at this point?
Thanks for the response
 
1 Atmosphere Equals 14.69psi
1 Bar Equals 14.50psi
1 kg/cm2 Equals 14.22psi

here are some conversions for you. also 2gs ran 14 lbs factory most of the time like you mention it falls off around 6k. turning the t25 up anymore is realitivley pointless as you see already your begining to outflow the turbo in the top end. do you supporting mods then get an upgraded turbo and youll be a very happy person. :thumb:
 
thanks. I was confused thinking that factory boost is 9 psi. Thats what a bunch of people on dsmtalk were saying. i guess i will be getting an eIII16g then... thats when i get some cash.
 
evoIII is a great turbo. im thinking the factory 1g ran 9 or maybe 11 but i cant seem to remember its to damn early for me to be thinking that much. but anyways just remember to get the supporting mods and youll have alot of fun and want more in 6 months... :D it never gets old adding more power.... :thumb:
