    Difference between ct26 60 trim and ct26 60-1?

    i bet! im on a stock ct26 on 9psi. so instead of tuning it to 13-14psi i want to get a bigger one. Im just trying to find a used 57 or 60 trim for under 400 and then tune it to 17-18 psi

    Horsepower increase from tuning stock turbo from 7psi to 14psi

    sorry i forgot to mention i have the HKS PFC FCON which takes away the stock fuel cut. So 14psi would be too much on the stock turbo? ive heard a lot of people run it on that much boost

    Horsepower increase from tuning stock turbo from 7psi to 14psi

    Hey guys, I was just wondering around how much of an increase in horsepower i would see by tuning my mk3 from 7psi to 14psi. I know everyone says its around 5-10hp for every pound of boost but I was seeing if anyone has had theres dyno'd and tuned and how much it increased after the tune. thanks
