honestly, if you have to ask this question, then maybe you shouldn't be boosting at all.

if you need any help with the install, then PM me or hit me up on AIM

Just keep it under 8 psi and you'll be straight. Any higher and you should get some sort of EMS and get it tuned. Good luck!

thanx guys...so not over 8psi without tuning? anything else...what should i run daily, stock psi? I was told I could run 9psi at the track....also right now, I use medium grade unleaded so when I boost, use super unleaded right? any special oil type/weight recommended? I've also heard about driving it in EXTREME heat is a ? sorry I'm new to all of this but it will look good in my engine bay...I'm learning as I go along, trust me...I've searched and didn't find anybody talking about this stuff

Colder spark plugs help. 9psi is still a no no without alcohol or retarded ignition timing.

daily drive at 6ish and you'll be fine, about .5-.52 bar is fine for the track, that way you can still drive it home later.

.52bar = 7.54psi btw...
