I have the Lexus A.F.M., 550 injector, 3" exhaust, stock inner cooler and upgrade 57 trim on a ct/26. Whats the highest boost you can run on this set up with out hitting fuel cut?

You're probably going to be well out of the efficiency range of that turbo at 20 psi. With the right tuning you can get 20 psi out of one of those, but it's not efficient and the turbo likely won't last very long.

I have a similar setup, but with a stock CT26... I run it at 13psi, as anything above that is worthless due to inefficiency (as already mentioned).

without fuel management you are lucky to get much past 12, with an afm 18 or so and yes even 20ish

Stock CT26, or 57 trim? And how much power did you make on the dyno?

Scale back the Hz correction with a piggy back, up the FP, and you'll never see FCO. :)

probaly the best answer I've read so far, one problem: "scale back"??? I guess that's a qeustion for a later thread. or ask tech support (Greddy) up the f.p.?? to what p.s.i.?

Thanks!
