wondering about boost

With the 2.6 or the 2.5 what kind of boost are you guys seeing and also what kind of numbers are you guys putting down. I would guess like 260 to the ground. Let me know, Thanks , Jared

Haven't ran at a track since I was stock . I think most people are trapping between 106 and 108 though, but not 100% sure on that.

I belive that the headgasket is good for up to 20 lbs. of boost, I mainly see 19.5. I guess I'm on the border. Not completely sure about the headgaskets boost limit, though.

With racefuel and my setup you can get 270. You should have no problems once you are all hooked up.

Before you change your pulley, think about upgrading your aftercooling system and getting monitoring devices. A common mistake that people don't do and it ends in bad results.

I'd atleast looking into getting a Wideband.

Also, buy an interceptor gauge as well...great item to have. You can keep an eye on your IATs as well (Intake Air Temperature).

Having these around and keeping an eye on them could give you an heads up if something is going wrong or about to go wrong and you can stop before it does.
