With a good stand alone tune-up, you can live for a while at 1 bar if u DON'T use the blockgard. They just aggrivate over heating and cause cylinder hot spots. If you want to live, it's all about your tune-up

How about on a b16, I mean same kind of specs. Im not really looking a full race rebuild but I want to run like 13 flats on street tires. Another quick question I've got the drag kit its just not on yet, Where abouts would I want to be in the rpm rance if I wanted to do a roll on with say like a Vet or a camaro or something. I'v got this kit sitting here but I don't know much about the way boost reacts.

ok since we are on the topic - since it has absolutely nothing to do with what the original post wanted - i ran a 12.7 on street tires in my integra - so what
he is asking for his car - not a hybrid - i have seen 92vx's run low 12s with just an h22 - but once again its worthless to this post

I hit 13.50 at 5 psi in my 92 B18C hatch. I'm hoping to hit around 13 flat at 8 psi. That was with Yoko Avid T4's on 13" VX rims.
