You need a remap to increase the boost, it is the only safe way.

Yeah i heard bleed valve.. but if u whack the boost up too much does it stop the car runnin properly? Like on my old escort if u went above 18psi it wud just miss its tits off. Where as my r5 ran 30ps+ and that was fine. Escory had a bleed valve., r5 was done with the actuator

If you turn it up too much your engine won't run properly as it will have melted...
