i am begining to think that the "6 - 7 psi limit on stock internals" is under rated for our cars... you see this car is running at 9 pssi, the turbo 2.0 nubira we had was running 9 psi and the turbo 2.0 nubira wagon from poland is running 12 psi for the past 20k kms so i guess 7 psi is too much on the safe side compared to what the stock internals can really handle.lanos2001 wrote:9psi!!!!! on stock internals or forged? hopefully not stock or i hear a BOOM!!!! in the near future.

A lot of it comes down to the tune. If the AFR's, timing, EGT's are all good then we should do pretty well.MMamdouh wrote:i am begining to think that the "6 - 7 psi limit on stock internals" is under rated for our cars... you see this car is running at 9 pssi, the turbo 2.0 nubira we had was running 9 psi and the turbo 2.0 nubira wagon from poland is running 12 psi for the past 20k kms so i guess 7 psi is too much on the safe side compared to what the stock internals can really handle.lanos2001 wrote:9psi!!!!! on stock internals or forged? hopefully not stock or i hear a BOOM!!!! in the near future.

Don't get caught up too much about how much "psi your running". A lot has to do with the sizing of the turbo and how much air it flows. By sight that T25 looks pretty small on both compressor and turbine housing sides, so the amount of air it flows will not be as much as say a small T3.
Comes down to where you want to make your power and how much stress your internals can handle. T25 will feel breathless top end but have crazy quick spool. T3 would be a little laggier but pull like crazy in the mid to top end.

gtwoo'd I see you have a screen there in the dash, is it motorised?
I'm about to buy a similar one for CarPC and want to make sure that it will come out fully without hitting the air controls, does your hit them?
