Some advice on boosting without it going bang


Recommended Posts

Alright peeps

I have a standard internals

I'm currently running td04

With

Fcd

Fuel pressure reg set at 45psi

(This is only temp until November when I get greddy blue)

I have a single core civic rad

And just had delivered my 1bar actuator

Is it save to run a bar on this rad an what sort of power will I put out

Currently my actuator can only do 0.7

Cheers

Dan

Yeah thats fine on the radiator, i would be more worried about ensuring your not still using the standard manifold, its got a restriction in one of the runners which means if you crank the boost up past standard without either removing restriction or upgrading manifold it will melt a piston.



Also to run more than standard boost you need to get your fueling setup correct, you cant do it just by the psi on the regulator as every car is different, you either need to do it with a rolling road session or using a wideband air/fuel ratio sensor.



dont fuck around with it until you have done this :)

i would stay at 0.7 bar untill you get the blue fitted but. stay safe. once blue is on get it mapped and go up to 1 bar



depending on your setup you will be around 220-230 on average but with a healthy engine can see upto 250
