Running 7 pound now. made a big difference and my otherwise stock setup seems to be handling it quite nicely.Just wanted to hear people's thoughts on what I've done, and to now if anyone else has tried this.

Just can't be sure the afr's are ok and the car is running fine.Capa flash is the only way tuned on a dyno.Just my opinion.Benny Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60000-running-7pound-boost-now/#findComment-912243 Share on other sites More sharing options...

Benny Member 1,869 Member For: 21y 8m 19d Gender: Male Location: Newcastle Posted 26/07/09 09:37 AM Share Posted 26/07/09 09:37 AM Yes air fuel ratios. When you increase boost you need to increase fuel to match. Tuning on the dyno will allow the tuner to adjust boost, fuel and timing so it all works together for a safe tune for your engine.Benny Link to comment https://www.fordxr6turbo.com/forum/topic/60000-running-7pound-boost-now/#findComment-912296 Share on other sites More sharing options...
