i know from memory that a stock ecu and a tuned ecu feel like the timings is being pulled down in high temps... i really only drive my car, here in Calif, hard because of the harder pulls i get when its colder sep- may early mornings... i have gt-2 coolers and k24, X 50 package with high quality mods. my car is much quicker in the cooler temps. much.... i wouldn't go by the bar gage, i'd go by the feel.... those stock bar's do not read precisely.

i guess you'd have to define what you mean by "this"(?) a flash will significantly effect boost numbers. also the rev limiter is usually(?) raised. mine is. so to come full circle on this, f you're seeing boost numbers levels consistently at 0.8 or 0.9. with a possible peak of 1.0 under PERFECTLY cool weather conditions ( and in the northern hemisphere ) i would safely say you have a "stock" gt2 and the numbers are within the normal range of what you can or might expect running stock k24's. but more expert participants here could tell you exactly why, while i could not. i will stop talking out of the side of my neck now.

Sorry by "this" I ment boost pressure. I know that remaps increast boost pressure... But do they also make it so the boost pressure doesn't vary as much with changing climates?

i think that the ecu pulls back to save the engine... not sure, i could be wrong. however, i know by me MPH gage; in the heat i am lucky to see 75 mph in 2nd and 113 in 3rd. when its cold, i see 81 and 120 in the same gears at red line.. mine is set @ 7250, but i always shift @ 7k... this is my science measure E= hauling ***!!!!

gotcha. i don't think? a remap will change the degree(?) to which a boost level will be affected by changing temps, as such. again, i'm very nearly out of my depth or level of knowledge on this topic. i will say however, that given certain weather ( read cooler ) conditions than when HOT for example will result in higher boost reading ( usually ) of .1 on average? or MAYBE another .2 max, i would GUESS that the temps affect our cars similarly, regardless of tune. but again, others will know for certain, better than i.

i only know for certain, i see higher boost level(s) when driving hard under cooler ( than "normal for me" ) temps. eg, .1 in other words:. a peak on occasion of 1.3. max. any higher, i'm sure, would indicate an "issue".

The water\meth should be a good substitute for an intercooler upgrade at a fraction of the cost of the intercoolers but if you can do both, even better I have been reading the 997.2 GT2RS intercoolers are a good option for intercoolers at a reasonable price; around $1k
I think that would be right at 600 at the wheels on pump quite a bit more on higher boost with race gas.
Next step will be the 4.0 motor build. Muahahahaha
18G s are for K24 turbos.

I thought you can only put 18Gs in the K16 turbos and you can go with either 18Gs or 20Gs with the K24 turbos??
