Are you mistaking the black Accord to be a Civic? If you are, the guy is claiming 2 bar+ Why would you doubt it? He had issues at the Speedrun though.

hey ported..ye sorry that's what i meant..accord..and yes inspite of that i still find it very tough to believe that the car's running on 2 bar's of boost..i do realise everyone goes through issue's while tuning and testing..at times even during racing..but if you seriously put a lot of thought into it do think 2 bar's of boost would be attainable on that specific car..people if you'll could give out your opinion's..Jignesh back me up here..hehe..cheers..happy revvin..!!

Hey Nikhil,

All of us in the real world here in Mumbai know whats going on and who is doing what and saying what. No point commenting on fantasy when something is real I will comment otherwise once again people will say I am cribbing.

Viper

PS - For the record he had blown his engine 2 weeks prior to the race as well was running around looking for forged pistons. I think he is the same tuner who is based opp Gold's Gym Nepean Sea Road.

I am running my car at 18 PSI boost... Earlier before remapping, the car was running at 10 PSI.. now with the ECU map changed I am getting 18 PSI.. We tried working at 21 PSI but there was mis-firing since I yet have to install a bigger Intercooler.. Once that is done the car will surely be running at 21 PSI...
Cheers

whoa,,,
Sounds interesting how much is approx HP increase at 18Psi & till what level can stock internals handle? are u using stock injectors at 21Psi? have u tried plugining the sparkplug gap to check for misfiring,and last question when do we see it in action? in nxt meet???
