How much boost is the stage 1 going to run? I really don't want to build up the engine yet. With a turbo and engine that is going to be about 5 grand. eek

He said you can upgrade from S1 to S2 later on. I'm going to make a guess its running about 8 psi.

You wouldn't necessarily but like I said I was just guessing. As Terry just posted the kit also lowers the CR which is the key. That alone alows you to run more boost, simply speaking. laugh

We get more HP than a 'standard' 'bolt on' kit because we do lower the CR.Why have the wastegate open at 4000 rpm?,its wasted boost.The more the engine is under 'positive' intake manifold pressure the more you get,hence start with a lower CR.
