intercooled mine with just a factory intercooler, and wound boost to 14.5 and more fuel handles it fine, but now want more out of it. if you wanna go much more than 15psi you'll prob wanna look at a bigger fuel pump, because the standard pumps tend to run out of fuel after about 15 psi.

Wondering how much fuel you can get out of the standard pump? can it produce enough to run 15-16psi?

im runnin about 14 through it now with the fuel pump adjusted, just wondering if i can get that little bit more, and also it doesnt produce much soot out, is this a sign of not enough fuel?

so got everything tested today at the mechanics, it seems that the battery is feeding enough power to the starter through the power cable and it had a good earth. so we were pretty sure that the brushes are sticking, does anyone know someone who could fix this up for me fairly cheap?
