that is crazy!!!!

drew, you speak of running 40psi like its a bad thing..... i thought i heard once that 40 is a safe number on a stock set up but not to go over that. the reason i ask is because i am blowin 27psi right now with my quad xzt, and i was doing 32 stock, i was planning on getting the boost fooler from quadzilla that states that it can bring boost of heavily fueled system's to around 48psi which im sure is a lie but it makes me think if thats a good idea to run the fooler at all?!?!?

so joe, you think its a good buy? i mean its only 65-75$ so i figured its stupid not to have it for that price, but i just dont want to be stupid and buy somthing without knowing what it can or will do...

you get a big noticable diffrence from that or what?

40 isnt bad. . .untill you bark the turbo at that pressure. . .however at 40psi, the turbo starts to loose it's cooling effect on EGT's and you start blowing hot air. . .45psi on the stock unit is realy pushing it.

now after market turbo's are capable of higher pressures. . .and still maintain the ability to cool EGT's down even at 60+PSI.
