Boosting Higher - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #32838 18 posts Started by BBoYRuGGeD
OK guys well i finally got my twos r us MBC and got to install it yesterday. all i gutta say is WOW! at only 3 xtra lbs more of boost the car feels alot faster! currently hitting 12psi (tho i think im actually just hitting 11-11.5, my boost gauge i believe is a little inaccurate laugh.gif ). i just feel (and hear the turbo roaring for more.. laugh.gif ) the rush of xtra power when the boost gauge passes the 8.5-9psi stock boost i been running since the swap. holy crap, gutta start planning for a turbo upgrade now biggrin.gif

i tried to tell you this when you bought the mbc, remember? lol

the difference between 10psi and 13psi is huge. imho, 13 is the sweet spot.

I believe that the better thing is to mount a ebc!

boost is a BEAUTIFUL thing, aint it??? hehe

man, i wish the stock turbo on my WRX was as big as a ct26

i'm amazed that my turbo really makes as much power as it does

granted im running anywhere from 16-20psi depending on the mood i am in.

wow, the awd really takes a lot of power away. most swapers can put down that much or more on a ct26 at 15psi .
