    I don't think anyone knows..it's not just boost, you need to get fuelling and other basics right as well..

    So, if it peaks to 12 psi, you bend the rods?

    are you still on stock internals running 20 psi with a holset. What engine management ? B230et is motronic so you're limited for chips ( for fueling ). I think there's a viking chip you can put in. but it's easier to go megasquirt from motronic apparently. No piston squirters on b230et either, but you can add them. You can get cheap forged rods for it though.

    What injectors are you running in both cars?
    1996 Olive Green 850 AWD - Follow the Project - Forged rods, 19T, big blue injectors, 960 TB, 3.25" MAF, Ostrich, 608 binary, arduino data display, active exhaust control with Focus RS tips, 320mm front brake conversion.
