1.05bar on pump fuel and 1.18bar on race. I'm running Proto software. Like unvmym3, I have a Greddy boost controller, so I can set the boost wherever I want it.

If you don't have a boost controller, you should consider one...it makes adjusting boost so easy.

What software do you have? Do you have a boost controller?

That seems a bit high to me, but you should check with your tuner.

I was told not to run over 1.1bar on pump fuel, but that is 93 octane. On 95 you may be able to run a little more boost, but 1.3bar seems too high to me. I don't even run 1.3bar on race gas....

yup , you should invest in a boost controler , 1.3 is way to high for 95 1.1 is the max on pump. i would talk to you tuner get a new file .

1.2 bars here on pump, car runs great. (I do mix in a couple gallons of 103unl from time to time to keep things safe).

Good GAS IS YOUR Friend and pump gas "can be" your enemy.

I pull consisten 1.3 to 1.4 bar on MS 109 (105 octane unleaded/$10 per gallon)

On pump I do not like more than 1.1 bar personally.

I have been boosting this way thousands of times.
