question about boost on the 3s - 6G Celicas Forums

Topic #55284 2 posts Started by 95st-celica
i was wondering what people on here who have the 3s swap...how much boost are you running on your set up and how much is the most you can safely run? now i understand it depends on a lot of different things..such as proper tuneing and how well the motor is built to handle more boost...but if you dont mind posting how much you are currently running and and estimate of how much you could run max. with a simple set up such as: 2nd gen 3s swap...full 3" turbo back exhaust...FMIC...CAI and water injection...i know water injection helps a lot so just give me some figures on what you think you would be able to run max. with that set up and proper tuneing..i know lagos is runnin either 15 or 16..anyone higher then that?

15 to 17psi is the max ive seen. Simply because the ct-26 reaches its optimal performance at ~15-16psi. After that, efficency tails off considerably.
