I've heard from 10~11 psi? Not too sure, when I had my gauges I was already using IPD ECU then.

I think 0.6 bar so 8-9 psi.<br>I don't know which turbo is standard on that car but a 16T is using a 218/60 wastegate actuator which should do 0.6 bar.<br>If it's a 15G, which I doubt, it uses a 150/40 wastegate actuator and I guess it is running 0.4 bar of boost. (~6 psi)<BR><BR>

I think, if you look in the manual, it says the stock PSI is 8.7

<BLOCKQUOTE>quote:<HR>kai is more on target, I've heard 10psi<HR></BLOCKQUOTE><p>Thats fine then. IPD is claiming a 5 point rise in boost pressures with my upgraded ECU. So a little basic math and I get 15psi??? Is that correct????? Or am I missing something??

OK, so the ECU takes over.<p>If I disable my BC the boost is regulated straight from the compressor to the actuator and is 0.7 bar.<br>This is with the 300/70 wastegate actuator.
