Increase the boost?

Sorry, I'm new to the Tutbo game. What mods are there to increase the PSI on the 1.5T?

DON'T...! turn up the Factory stock turbo PSI and expect to race it around on
a track with-out some kind of cooling mods done like for exam:
- oil cooler
- bigger rad

and so forth, or You will damage the turbo or engine this one guy turned up
the Factory stock Turbo's PSI and raced it on a track watch what happened.

If you think a good mechanic is expensive, try hiring a bad one

Statement if mostly fluffed and false. OP inquired about simply increasing boost, never mentioned "racing around a track", racing, lap, road course and drag racing are completely different and would react temp wise differently depending on track condition/set-up, ambient temp, etc. Nonetheless, all would be completely different from a street driven civic. Hondata would not put out a program that would fry your turbo, etc. They have been players for a very long time and stick within Honda's issued fuel table parameters, keeping things pretty damn safe.

Too many newbs in the Honda game, why even comment if you're going to steer people off course instead of being helpful?!
