this is probably a very common question to ask and if theres threads that you guys can point me to id appreciate it, cuz i tried searching for some helpful info but came up with nothing...so here it is i need to find out what kinda boost i can run on my sc, i have a t61 turbo, 550cc injectors, tt headgasket, 255 walbro fuel pump, map ecu...im currently running 10lbs but ive been reading some stuff and i hear you can run some more...any info would help thx

 

get yourself an aeromotive FPR, a new clutch or built auto and shoot for 4-500whp with the mods you have... or in excess of 20psi on a 61mm turbo.

not to be a ****, you didnt search hard enough....also check out clubna-t.com.

good luck with everything.

 

you get it dynoed yet?
what are you using to monitor your A/F?

 

nope havnt had a chance yet but im guessing around 350, im using a innovative wideband

 

i don't believe u should be anywhere close to 20lbs on a tt headgasket unless u can totally control timing. i could be wrong though...

 

with stock ge pistons and tt headgasket and will strongly recc not boosting over 14psi for too long .. map ecu sucks (i have it and will be ditching shortly) without good timing control like from aem ,haltech you are flirting with diaster.. i have 2.5mm headgasket and i see egt temps climb at 20psi do to no timing control

 

yea thats what i thought around 14psi is about maximum, are you running stock pistons in yours cuz i see your gettin some serious power out of yours just were i wanna be

 

yes stock ge pistons 2.5 mm hg and 19psi gets me there but aem ems will get me alittle more with alittle less boost .. stock ecu does not like boost

 

alright thanks alot for the help
