Stock boost is 0.7 bar, the standard gauge is pants so ignore it and get a better one.

Its true. Depending on who you talk to some people will say its possible with nothing other than a bleed valve. Others will tell you that you need an uprated fuel pump, some kind of fuel controller, and a electronic boost controller. There are people on here that have done it both ways - but one thing that is certain is that the standard turbo/engine etc can take 1 bar of boost quite happily as long as it is set up right.

There is no hard and fast rule about when you should swap your standard intercooler over to a FMIC but most people agree not until you get to around the 330+ bhp mark.
