More boost??
Now that I hacve all of the toys I am going to get for awhile I need to tune this thing. How do I get more boost out of a stock turbo? I am either going to get it to run better or blow it up one or the other.

or if you feel like spending the money, Bank's has the big head actuator. Mine hits 32 psi here or 38 at sea level. Much over 35 is a waste anyway with a stock turbo.

Does that actuator fit a stock unit or is it for an upgraded turbo?

What is the max boost before we set an over boost code. I would also like to increase boost, but with the volumizer I do not have a boost fooler.

I'm thinking around 30/32, but not 100% sure.

If you want more boost AK RAM has a great price on his G-1. Check his classifieds.
