What? 0.25? I think better don't waste money. You have to factor in the inefficiency of the system and account for power loss. If you do 0.25, maybe you will only feel the force of 0.12 bar. The lowest I heard of boosting is 0.36 bar and that is for good flowing heads. For standard, people go for 0.4 or 0.5.

quite true, 0.25 better dont boost haha, the lowest I heard also 0.4 which is a good low boost. Should have pushed to at least 0.4 to 0.5 bar minimum, but like he said, the car is superb basic modification, fuel regulator also dont have

Hmmm, i find this quite funny, since i dont consider Adj fuel regulator as a basic mod. Dont really need it until you've overrun the stock one with higher flowing fuel pump.

I'm running stock pump and without any adj. fuel regulator too here. Works fine for more than a month now but only on low boost max at 0.7 bar.

Well l'll say almost 100 percent gain from running on 0.7 bar boost. Dyno chart shown before boost was 96whp and at 0.7 bar boost produced 178whp and 255 torque. Everything is on stock except the injectors using Gsr 390cc and running on auto trans. No slip in between gears.

Yours on the other hand are another monster to be since u are targeting high boost and around 300-400whp. I believe u need to upgrade your clutch, brake and suspension system as well to make it a stable street monster.

Very little I see VR4 postings nowadays. Is everyone tired of this powerful engine? Anyways, I have a few topics for discussion for those interested. And, if anyone has anything to share, do post in this thread too.

1. Does your VR4 in a Wira feel a little laggish when you accelerate? When the accelerator pedals are pressed, does anyone experience an empty spot where the engine does not rev immediately. Very minimal.... ( this is on standstill and without any gears )
