Does anyone know what the correct boost pressure is for a Calibra Turbo and how this is adjusted

Or anywhere in Bristol which is good with Tunning Turbos and does not charge you the earth to do it.

Thanks in Advance

0.8 bar boost 1.0 bar overboost

this is controlled using an amal valve which is a 12v supply from the ecu connected to the turbo wastegate to control how long the wastegate stays open or closed for i.e building up of boost.

remember not to over do it with a bleed valve coz its fookin expensive to fix these bad boys when they go pop.. and they do so in style!

the std KKK turbo wont take more than 2 bar without a doubt, personally dont go more than 1.5 max for reliability issues.

Better off putting in a c20xe inlet cam for 10bhp extra.

Or get an incar digital boost readout that you can manually see how much your upping the boost without guessing how far you turned the bleed valve.
