I would like to know what is max boost with no mods as I was thinking of putting a bigger turbo or keep same turbo if I can get good pso to get max dose flutter as I have heard the harder it spools the louder it gets. I really don't want any power. Just wanna tune it to be good at full throttle and everyday driving to be economy as. Otherwise I might have to go for xr6 but don't want to Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

For example the 2.2l ranger I had prior to the triton runs 20psi which is stock. Holds it well to, I have logged it with forscan, ramps in hard and holds nice and flat at 20.
