hey guys,

just wondering at what psi should i adjust the boost controller at???

-thanks

 

23psi safely if your on Pump if on Race then maybe 24-25psi??? some one correct me if im wrong!! BUt i think 23psi would be your best bet

 

what should he set it at if he was using a stock fuel pump with a tbe and intake filter and flash?

 

Stock Ix pump is good for your level of mods. Max boost will depend on octane of fuel. 22-23 is good for 93 octane(R+M/2). Intake kit will lean it out, but the flash should've corrected for it.

 

on 93 octane

 

In what gear do you guys usually adjust it at? Do you guys do pulls in 3rd gear to adjust it?

 

i set mine in 3rd.

 

Yep, I set my boost in 3rd as well to spike 23lbs on 93 octane.

Topic creator: You should really look into getting some sort of flash to take advantage of all your mods, then it will really wake up!

 

how did it feel after u got it flashed!

 

It's probably a different experience on a IX. On my VIII I adjust max boost in top gear, as my boost'll creep a bit in 5th and not in 3rd.

 

Say I have a tbe with a filter and then i had it flashed, then i decide to install a mbc do i have to have ecu reflash again?

 

Like a cammed Evo8.

No, as long as you keep the boost the same as before.

 

Damn already beat me to answering... I say 23psi and set it at the coolest part of the day/night in 3rd gear.

 

What does the car spike to in stock form? sorry for the newbie question.

And why can't a flash re-adjust the wastegate to stay at 23psi?

 

If you know your question is a NEWBIE question then why did you post it anyway... You should learn quickly that there is a seach button at the top of the screen. As for your question: Normally stock Evos spike 19 psi and taper down as the RPM's rise. As for how low... many see it drop to roughly 13-14 psi. Obviously the elevation and climate makes a difference. As for a re-flash. It doesnt adjust the stock wastegate. Wastegates are mechanical not electrical.
