What psi on this car? - 9/23/2007 6:35:50 PM    newguy2007   Posts: 76 Joined: 9/19/2007 Status: offline I decided against the auto car i was gonna buy but i think i found a new one. I just have a few questions before i buy. Heres the link:       http://www.autotrader.com/fyc/vdp.jsp?car_id=230812678 The owner is going to send me a list of all the mods on it but you can see some at the bottom of the page. 1. He said he had a boost controller with 3 settings. What the **** does that mean. I thought boost controllers just had a knob? 2. He only has 550cc injectors. What psi can i run with these? Should i buy bigger? 3. What about an estimate on the hp. 4. Is the only difference between the 16g and the 20g the turbo lag and the amount of hp they can take? Thanks Post #: 1

He also said it needed a tune to stop the backfire. Could i tune with an SAFC if i buy one or will i need a dyno tune? (in reply to Sebba) Post #: 7
