Title: Standard psi?
Post by: James Q on 06 February 2011, 12:56

Fitted my boost gauge this morning, took it out for a spin and it only boosted to 5/7 psi, its a completly standard car, so was wondering if thats fine? Also whats the 'hg' stand for on the boost gauge??

I think thats about right. With a stage 1 map your looking at about 13/14 psi. That's what mine says anyway.

Just searched and it says 7psi is a standard out put so not bad, have to upgrade my clutch before a remap!
