phase 2 should overboost to 21 psi and hold at 17 psi though

1 bar is 14 psi yep?

the phase 2 nova i have been in was 21 psi overboost and settled at 16-17 psi, same with spankees vectra

My GT4 held 1.33 bar the other day... think thats about 20psi

its supposed to run 13 as standard, and fuel cut is at 18psi

feck knows how it went all the way up there but it pulled like a train!!!

I had to then turn my EBC down a little to ensure it didnt happen again

i have been out in a standard Cally T when mattb had one.. then he upgraded to Phase2 and was sooo much faster..

depends on what you got now.. uprated turbo and FMIC ??

if not then you might need a bigger FMIC but the turbo can take the extra pressure.. think its around £300 (maybe £200) but its well worth it.. and you can just plug n play

You won't get much of a power upgrade without changing the cams. You should at least put on an XE inlet cam on a vernier...

going on the rule that 1psi can gain 7-11bhp, the car was pushing somewhere between 304bhp and 332bhp

so yes, some wee came out and my pants turned brown
