for those living in cold weather how much boost u getting totally stock on tc? im doing 14psi and it doesnt seem to go any higher. is that normal?

 

for the stock tc... that is what I was seeing, but when it gets warmer, its easy for me to see 17-20 on the highway when i stand on it passing an 18 wheeler.

 

i live in new york and its been a constand 20 something mostly all winter and im only seeing 13-15psi so ur good.

 

there's is no "normal" with a stock tc. the car will either add or take away boost as needed to hit the 260 torque target. so boost will be different depending on temperature, altitude, etc.

ok, well i tried to see how fast she would go today, i got up to 130mph/220km but there was a car so i had to slow down.

wonder what it will be when i put in cai and new ic piping

 

lol 130 mpg, thats better than a prius...


I live in socal, and with the rain and the "storms" im getting 13~14 psi.

 

wow, i wish I got 130 mpg... but I have had it up to 150 mph before I had to let off for traffic... that was a full 20 psi and like 3 mpg! I ran it like that for about 10 miles... I loved it. And the car felt like it wanted to go faster.

 

18-19 in CO when it was stock

 

I find it amusing when I have my friends who drive Supras and other turbo cars in mine and they look at my boost gauge when I floor it shoot up to 17-18 psi and they are like, WOW!!! THATS ALOT OF BOOST! with huge eyes... It makes me smile!

 

15psi stock

 

Stock I was sitting at around 15 in 25 degree weather and with the stage kit at the same temp I'm at about 17 to 18 no less. We hit 60 a few days ago and I went up to 23

 

BartSS where did you get the GM stage kit from? Is it already out?

 

he has a HHR.

 

Yup I got the hhr. That came out around Christmas

 

lol there i fixed it, my bad, that would be awesome though

 

I live in north carolina, its been constantly around 40 degrees, mine shoots up to 14, then peaks 17, but when it was like 75 i was boosting like 19, peaking 22.....keep in mind of your break in periods, you wont reach 100% boost until after your 10,000 miles....i just got my car in october, its an 09, and im not past the 10,000, but soon it will be, but i couldnt wait so i just got tuned and all hahn products......

Pretty soon, whenever hahn comes out with the kit, im getting the gt35r turbo kit, but i have no idea how much boost i should run, or can run, on this stock motor....what internal mods should/can i do first, in order to be able to have alot of boost...im thinking like 25psi on the 35r?

 

You will have to clamp your map sensors so the computer does not see you are seeing more than 22.5 psi for three seconds. Other wise the ECM will slam the throttle shut on you.

 

Toronto, cold, 14-16psi average during winter.
