So I can increase my boost safely by 20% can I ? :)










That's half a bar for me and I'm sure my turbo would shite itself as well as that me engine would probably be detting its tits off :shock:

Sorry Craig mate, disagree !

Your car is far from standard lee work out 20% of your standard boost and tell me it's unreasonable

to do it yourself you'll need

EvoScan, $25
Ecuflash free
AFR gauge ~£135 need one with a PC interface
det cans but you can use the standard knock sensor also

lots of reading on how to map a car and take things easy when tweaking make small adjustments at a time then test, test, test then make an adjustment again etc

Just to add 20% on stock e6 ralliart is 1.8 bar

How did you manage to work that out? :s are the roughly 1.5 bar standard?? No

Take the whole boost pressure for example 1.2 devide by 100 and times by 20 = 1.344 and that's safe to run

If you have 1.5 bar to start with then ADD 20% it's 1.8

1.5x1.2 = 1.8

Ok I'll calculate your way
1.5 \ 100 = 0.015
0.015 x 20 = 0.3
0.3 + 1.5 = 1.8
