Default How much boost?

Hey, I have a 99 a4 1.8Tquattro tip. Everything is stock except an APR chip and some other usless stuff.

In what range should my boost and Vac.be? I have a boost gauge but i don't know how much i am suposed to have.

Anybody know?

diode for getting past the 14.7psi limit before limp and a mbc. So once again I WIN.

so basically you turned up your boost and didn't change your fuel curve or timing?

thats why i can only go to 17psi and not 20-22. Just waiting to replace the my blown gt28r before the bt setup goes back on. Going back to a ko3 sucks.
