Well, my turbo setup is going in on Thursday/Friday. I'm running an Apexi kit (manifold and IHI turbo), fmic, etc, etc in my '89 hatch (see sig) with a d16a1 ecu. I have dsm 450s and a SAFC and will run the hack. My question is, is it okay to run the basic settings (as per dropshop.com's write up) on my car? Even though I am at around a mile above sea level? I just need some insight to this, as I have never owned a V/SAFC. I've done some research online, but most of the info seems to be the same. BTW - boost will be around 9-10 psi. Please get back ASAP. Thanks a lot.

 

boosted cars are less effected by elevation than N/A cars are.

i think you will be fine with a BASE setting as shown, but like anything- every car is differen't, and if you want it to be as safe as possible, get it tuned.

 

Right on man, thanks.
