Ok so I must be missing something here.... I'm probadly asking some newbie questions since I do not own a KA-T motor or a SR motor in my 240sx.

Info I need:
You put some race gas in your car (110 or 114 octane)?
Full race only no mix with preimum unleaded?
Then you proceeded to Mess with your "boost controller", only item of tuning in your car?

My Questions:
What tuning devices do you use, anything to measure Knock, timing and other engine functions?
Isn't 25 psi sorta high for a motor that was not engineered for a turbo?

My thoughts:
I also run a modified Mitsubishi Eclipse, currently tuning it for race gas, yet was informed by many people to start at 1 bar, (roughly 15psi) I run, look at my timing, fuel, and knock charts coming from the ecu. Adjust my S-AFC for fuel trims, and then relog/run my car.

I haven't heard too many cars running around on 25-30 psi on race gas.... (I know of only 1 that does it with haltech and is daily driven) <img src="http://www.zilvia.net/f/iB_html/non-cgi/emoticons/wow.gif" border="0" valign="absmiddle" alt=':0'>

If you just Upped the Boost controller psi, you might want to rethink your tuning method for your car.
