without knowing the condition of your motor - my guesses would be dont run anymore than 15psi on a ceramic item - ive also heard the ceramic linings will start to " delaminate " at higher speeds + youll have lovely little fragments being sucked into your motor Also - once again - your HG will probably say goodbye if its never been changed .. thios seems to be the fisrt thing to give up at anything greater than standard boost - though luckily - TRD , HKS , and a number of other companies make excellent swap items .. before raisings boost - id be focussing firstly on cooling the charge better ( im guessing you still have topmount gen2 intercooler - going bny the scoop ) , gwetting your tuning right with something greater than a piggyback bandaid + then look at raising your boost .. having run a gen2 - with FCD and electronic boost controller - i netted 115 AWKW at 14PSI ... Im now doing 120 AWKW apprx - on 12 PSI - with a much nicer standalone safemode tuned ECU - with mapping now to 20+ if needs be * edit - forgot to add - i believe my turbo is a steel gutted ct26 - as ive been told by a number of sources now the australian spec Gt4's got the same turbo as group A's which are definantly Steel guts* [Updated on: Tue, 15 March 2005 07:08] [Report message to a moderator]
