    That's too much boost for oranges. Whites will help. it'll adapt pretty quickly.

    I raced my first year with oranges at 18 psi/1.3 bar, without any issues

    I would think its more to do with the map?

    Depends on the state of the injectors JT. Mine ran lean as hell with oranges at 16psi. Good ones would probably be good for more.

    I think mine we're in good condition as it took me a while to persuade my tuner to let me change to blues!
    he said it didn't need it, now running greens with increased fuel pressure! lol

    Rich,was the map suited to your car or was it second hand?

    I would say your map needs tweaking slightly
    assuming everything else on the car is ok( fuel pump, filters etc)

    It would be fine, blues and whites flown the same. blues are designed to run at higher pressure.
