Is it possible to increase the boost of the normal turbo,
not much, 'bout 0.2 bar or something.
Anybody tried it?
Pros & cons?

All replies appreciated

Thanks

I believe, and I'll have to check my figures, that the fuel system will cut the fuel to the engine if the boost pressure goes above 20psi to protect the engine from overpressuring. Remeber this from somewhere, maybe someone else can confirm while I go away and double check.
