Boost??
Hey everyone,
I'm curious what kind of boost pressure people see at max with Stock turbos and a stage 1+ car. As a point of reference, my boost peaks at 18 PSI in the middle 4000 RPM range. I have Cobb V3, PTF tune, FMIC, DPs, Charge Pipe, Diverter Valves, recent plugs, coils, walnut blast, vacuum lines and boost solenoids. Aso, BMW replaced my turbos about 10K miles ago.... I'm told I can run a couple more PSI at peak given that I just added the DPs, but 18 PSI seems pretty fast and stable.. Thoughts???

I've seen 21+ psi on stock turbos. I run 18psi on E30 and the race flash. Enough for daily driving but still not going to blow the turbos in 3k miles. Also, the "stages" are more or less relative, I'd just say FBO pump gas protune.

Depends on your cylinder timing. If your tuner lowered your timing , car can reach over 20 psi safely.
