So I bought 452 with 2g Maf, 550s and an E316G,

The things overboosting like a mother, and hits fuel cut at wide open throttle, Im going to put a few gauges in it so I can see whats really going on. Whats a proper boost setting with this set up (since it has no tuning) that i can run safely?


thanks a bunch

Make sure the vacuum line to the wastegate isn't torn.

Sigh, every car is different.

There is no such thing as safe boost either, get a wideband to monitor what's going on with your AFR's.

If you don't do this, I'm gonna say 30psi is safe.....

wastegate pressure. 7-10psi.

because you asked this question, you should not be allowed anymore than that.
