You have mentioned it has e8 internals but still 1.5 peak to 1.4 is all I'd push it to

yes,you can run 1.5, but the boost will trail off after 5000 rpm to 1.4..even 1.3

the 9.0t just cant cut it. :(

but it will feel great for at least two weeks

or until you drive a 10.5t boostin 1.5.

The fq's on the 9.8t run 1.3 peak between 1.4-1.5. They won't hold it very well tailing off pretty quick. What's the spec on the motor mate?

I've always run mine on 1 bar but that's due to me being abit anal and paranoid as I've blown a turbo'd civic in the past due to over boosting
