hey guys can anyone shed light on this little matter ???

i bought my zed from japan so im the first uk owner , the car was used for drifting according to the mechanic of the company that imported it he said the tyres that were on it were for drifting (and they were slippery, in the wet deadly! ) so ive changed them .

The car has a hks evc and i have had a look at the ecu and it has a hiperchip sticker so i take it its been chipped does anyone know anything about " HIPERCHIP" also when saw photos of the cars interior i could see that ythe evc was turned to max ! When i picked the car up the evc was turned down , i asked the mechanic there about it he said even if i turned it to max it wouldnt overboost but on the gauge when i turn it past 2 thirds up on the evc it flies past the 14psi mark for it to do this it would need forged internals ??????? and what other things would it require to have been done, and how can i tell if its capable of going past 14psi??? i dont want to turn it up anymore in fear of blowing my new motor and as you can tell im not to clued up on this car any help would be great cheers

Hi Jim this is always one of the downsides of buying a modified car from Japan, problem being you don't know whats been done for example turbo's injectors etc etc , you would be better off getting it checked by someone who knows what they are looking at before playing with it matey
