Default Advise pleaseeeeee ..........

Just bought a grey WRX "96" last week, nopt got it yet as I need to sell my car before picking it up (if anyone wants a 02 plate saxo vts in wicked red with 59000 miles - £3995 ono lol),

What boost will it be running on as standard?

If I buy a boost controller what can it safely run on?

Is a Boost control a good idea or not recommended?

Cheers

Also, is there away of altering the boost or Bar or something to make it run quicker or slower?!?!

Just wondering for days I need to save fuel if I could do this by lowering the bar or boost?!?! Sorry its my first Scooby so have no idea what I am talking about.

Please help!!!

well if your turbo has a adjuster on the actuator you can wind that out or just get a boost controler with preset boost settings

So how high could I set the boost safely?

Would lowering the boost not mean better fuel consumption?

it would but its the same as not putting your foot down on the gas as much. as for the most amount of boost you can have i wouldn't go above standard as who wants to be blowing head gasket or worse?
