dude seriously you need to stock your F'ing lieing to us or we cant help you. you said the car was stock then in another thread you said you have 35r and switching the a T70 or something like that. All I can say is it has a flash if you have a 35r otherwise youll blow your motor up

the car has a stock rev limiter what are you talking about? Stock is set at 7400. I hope your building up your block to run a turbo that big

once again your posts continue to sound like crap and meaningless. Nothing you ever say about mods ever makes sense. And you do realize how big a T70 turbo is right. Those are not meant for anything but a fully build track car. Thats it.

yes i plan to build the block but i need a job first. all i have is what i bought when i got the loan from the bank when i rect, ok what the diff with ems and cumputer. i get confused this is my first car that takes more then two wires to run it. now if you talk about camaros i can tell you anything about them, but i have little time to talk to the guy that works with my car i try to get answers for what i what to know all i know is what i have gone through witht this car. like the stock drive train is weak. and dont use cheap gas in it either. oh yea the stock motor can only handle 22psi roughly with stock turbo. the stock piping sucks to but all in all its a great car. i love it. i canged the rec limit on its cause it helps me i dont have to look down at the rpms when i race off the line. and i build more boost off the line then with stock rev.

well in order to get the rev limiter raised they would have had to flash the stock ECU. So if i were you i would have gotten a flash for the fuel maps as well because the evo is really rich from stock

Ok you should leave your rev limiter at 7400 no less. You can activate the 2 step launch controll whcih allows you a rev limiter in first when stopped and you can bounce off of at like 6100 (thats what mine is at) it will allow you to build plenty of boost to spin all 4 tires off the launch. I can get sideways off of a launch with mine. Stock turbo yea 22PSI is about max I would go granted plenty of people do more with meth injection but I wouldnt. No matter what turbo you have you wont want to run more than 24 PSI without have either race gas or meth injection, and that is providing you get 93 octane where you live if you only get 91 then you should even run that high. If you put lower octane than 91 in the car you risk blowing the motor up, that is a high risk too because it will most likely cause damage if you floor it because it will cause ALOT of knock.
