I'm thinking of having my car chipped and upping the boost to 12psi from stock (9psi is it???), bearing in mind I use my car as a daily drive so it needs to be reliable.

 

Question: I am better getting a boost jets, or going to the additional expense of a boost controller so I can turn the boost down for the daily drive? Also, with the possibly boost controller group buy that’s going on, am I better going for the Profec e 01 or is this a bit of overkill and the Profec B will do, or is there maybe a better option? I'm also slightly worried about having the Screen for the Profec e 01 on display, some fecker may break in thinking it's a TV.

 

Or am I better leaving it the **** alone?

 

Mods I have: Mongoose Cat-Back exhaust, Induction kit, Trust Intercoolers, the exhaust still have the Cat's in and the engine has 110K. UK Manwell car.

 

Any opinions (or just post the normal abuse :D:D:D)

Yeah, but nobody was listening :D

 

aint that the story of my life :rolleyes: ;)

1.2mm jets = 12 psi on mine

weres this group buy then :D

I thought your's had turned into a 'smoke machine'! How many miles have you done?

 

LOL - I'm pretty sure that's the turbo seals Mike - started to show about 2 months after decat! 80,000 miles on the clock. Don't know whether the oil seals going are because of the higher boost levels - guess it could be...

 

Anyway, very rarely get any smoke. Only if it's been idling for about 10 mins especially after a heavy run. It was smoking a lot more than usual at Thor - honest guvnor! :D

Herman,

Just come back from the NW meet where I was checking out Scoops car. The display on the Profec e-01 is the DOGS! - easily as good as any dedicated boost gauge I've ever seen - and much cooler looking. Sure you need to address the issue of mounting abd security - but I can point you in the direction of a centre pod that is being made specifically for the e-01 - watch this space!
