0.8 bar boost

[Anonymous]

My cars got and induction kit and full mongoose system, it’s running 0.8 bar boost is this average or good?

I think standard is 0.7 so may have had a slight boost increase

dont the boost creep up a bit when you fit the goose and ditch the cat?

it was was 0.7 bar before the goose so it did creep up a bit just wondered if its running well @ 0.8 ?

should be fine but i dont doubt someone will asy otherwise. all depends on condition of your car and any extras it might have ie uprated fuel pump.
fuel controller will ensure its all ok....cue

It'll be fine...

You don't really need an uprated fuel pump or anything like that until you start going for 1bar or higher...

Standard boost is about 0.65... The goose downpipe will allow for a 0.1 increase in boost plus the colder temps these days will account for an extra 0.05 increase in boost hence the 0.8bar you are running now...

Mine's got a goose and apexi induction kit and is running between .7 and .85 depending when you look at the boost gauge and in what gear :?
It was good for 246bhp and is running fine.
