Not meaning to hijack a thread but my thoughts exactly. I'm glad you're around and have always been grateful for your site man.

Another thing is proper cool down after extreme driving for the turbo. Either by letting it idle for a few mins or a cool down lap driving home so to speak.

I am feeling the RTEK 1.5 would be the way to go. It eliminates the code in the computer that would require an FCD.

The main question I have is: If the system boosts over stock levels, let's say to 10psig, will the RTEK recognize that there is actually 10 psig and retard timing? Or will it just see a max of 9 psig and that is it?

What I am trying to get at is what is the max guage pressure that the computer can recognize with the RTEK 1.5? 9 psig, 12 psig, 15 psig?

If the RTEK equiped computer can see 15 psig, what will it do? (add fuel, retard timing, etc...?)

Thanks!
