from memory I believe around 14 psi is standard. Are you going to use the boost controller in tandem with tune? Just increasing boost without anything is not a great idea in my book and good way to go ping boom bang with engine!

I think the stock GT runs 0.7 bar (about 10psi), and since it's not a huge power increase, I'd say something similar.

I know of about 6 GTs with no tune but basic mods running perfectly fine. As long as you dont go crazy there shouldnt be a problem.

Mr Information :) you can always depend on Franky for the low down techie stuff.

Do you know what PSI for a normal GT?
