Just had a map done on my 2.5, with electronic boost control and intercooler only and it made 348 bhp and 342 lb ft. Question being the boost is a touch over 1 bar, is this safe? The turbos are freshly rebuilt and standard, and I know Trevor knows his stuff but was abit confused when from the factory they run 0.7 and have heard not to go above 0.9 bar? I have had no end of problems and just want to be careful, amazing difference!!

Must admit when I was just over 1bar I was 380 but I had exhaust also. If you change upper inlet manifold for the one from a ST200 then that opens it up some more as it lets more air in.

Although around 380 the Pistons can let go.
