Question about Jump from 7psi to 14+, Can someone describe or attempt to describe what that feels li
I mean I went from my gsr w/ intake header and exhaust, to my hatch with a b16 and 7 psi and I had the biggest smile on my face and then I realized how fast it was, but I can't image the feeling at twice or more the boost that Im running now. Can you try and describe what it feels like or tell the story of the first time you cranked it up. I mean the tq increase alone has to be enough to jam you in your seat.

Going from IHE on a d16y8 then to 5psi. Was a joy. Then I put it to 10psi and was "smiling ear to ear baby!"

Gonna jump from 10psi 1.8L to 14+ psi on a sleeved 2.0L........ough to be fun.
Hoenestly you'll feel the biggest difference when you start to get into the effiecentcy range of your turbo. I noticed a big difference b/t 7 and 10 psi on my t3/t4......thats just me though.

Wow you didn't feel any difference? I could tell a big difference in top end when I did it. Which tripped me out because it was a greddy kit I had on.

people keep saying the 18g is a small turbo. granted, a t3/t04 is bigger, but the 18g is more than enough for a street car. those are pretty nice turbos, and it seems like everyone thinks they're really small or something. an 18g is a lot bigger than my t3.
