will standard e4 run 1.5 bar by changing ecu e5?

U will need a boost controller to turn the boost up mate

And an Evo 5 ecu to get your car remapped so it can run safe at higher boost most tuners wouldn't reccomend 1.5bar on stock 4 internals I think 1.3 is recommended for the 4 internals.

Nothing stopping you going up to 1.5 bar but it is a bit of a gamble on the 4 engine personally I would take the risk though :)

I know of a 4 on standard internals running 1.5bar and 380bhp with no problems

I'd say 1.5 is max if not pushing a 4 piston! They can run 1.5 if mapped well but i wouldn't want to. About 1.3 mapped well should be looking about 330 bhp which is where i'd stop with a 4 engine to be safe:)

Have you uprated the fuel pump? If not leave your boost alone

I'd get it checked asap mate, if its running 1.5bar then the ecu you have fitted has already been mapped on another car! the standard 5 ecu shouldn't allow more than 1.2/1.3bar without htting the fuel cut.

I assume you changed to later injectors as well?

my plan is going to get remap by changing 560cc injectors, evo 7 actuator, fuel pump and ecu e5.

i got a set of 560cc injectors, i m going to put it on this coming friday.

Right now in my car , i dun know it is standard injectors or not? i dun know if i need to change the actuator ? and i dun know if i need to get a walboo 255 fuel pump?

so i need to ask u guy. i 100% sure it is running 1.5 bar. i dun wana change things which had already been done.
