how to turn up boost ?

[djsix66]

hi all, just wondered does anybody know how to turn up the boost on the turbo as my car is running at 0.5 bar and i would like to push it up to 0.7/0.8 to see what the gain would be. thanks

thanks,i wasnt sure if i would need to buy a boost controll kit or something?

is there a great difference between a actuator and a manuall controller??

manual controllers are not the best tbh.

if you can afford it get an EBC. they are more reliable.

agree with rick but the hks actuator is the cheapest and you will be able to hold boost

[glanzaturbo]

so what would you need to run 1bar?

hks actuator first, as your stock actuator will be the weak link even if you bought the most expensive EBC on the market.

sort that out then you could use something like a dawes device as a form of manual boost control, but definately sort the actuator out first.
