but more power can be made up to about 22psi w/o straining the turbo. Just makes less power/psi. No, stock fpr is fine.

maybe, i just get confused... because sometimes i see you say that people should upgrade to a 4bar and others you say they shouldnt... and now that im actually going to get an mbc from a more reliable site (not voodoo) it would be time to know for sure... so im sorry if i have, but never hurts to be sure as apposed to messin somethin up bad. haha, just wait til i get the thing then ill be asking how to up it haha... ahh i crack myself up...

ok no but really, sorry

So is that post advocating 22psi?

Mine spikes about 21. I had it down to 19 for a while, it seemed slower.
