hanra Into the laaaake Member 1,532 Member For: 17y 7m Gender: Male Location: Nrth Qld Posted 21/11/07 02:49 AM Share Posted 21/11/07 02:49 AM My ute still has the stock tune in it, (CAPA box sittin in my bedroom awaiting custom tune). Ive already got a K&N panel filter and Typhoon CAI. I was intending on fitting this Monza styled intercooler and process west UBP over the weekend. I generally baby the car around anyways, but how safe is it to drive it with these mods? Everything else is stock as a rock. It runs BP ultimate, has newly replaced NGK platinum irridium plugs still gapped to 1.1mm. Running 5psi boost currently. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Im gonna get my Valve Springs done, then flash bact to my stock tune, Add the monza and UBP, then get it tuned... I plan on doing these mods in a row, and as soon as possible one from the other so I dont drive it around as much.. I've been told by a few people its ok as long as I dont give it any 'curry' or it will just overboost and go into limp mode. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZAP No boost, no bottle, just my foot on the throttle! Lifetime Members 7,935 Member For: 20y 11m Gender: Male Location: Sydney Posted 21/11/07 03:08 AM Share Posted 21/11/07 03:08 AM The intercooler will cause it to overboost and thus into limpmode.Valvesprings are fine as is airfilter and UBP, but exhaust, injecotrs or cooler will end the fun Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I wanted to just keep the stock tune. So it mite be ok, provided I dont give it a boot full. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
