okay, i've been seeing on this board that most turbo kits for the ka24de will give u like 230-250 hp to the ground. is this at 7psi? shouldn't u only be boosting about 4psi at first if u just bought the kit and had it installed? r the dynos that they've shown based on a stock ka motor w/ just their kit on it?</td></tr></table><span id='postcolor'>

TY Yap with the FMax stage II kit on a stock S14 KA24DE is at 14.5 psi pulling 320 rwhp.
Most "stage I" kits will do something like 250 whp @ 7 lbs of boost. The graphs shown are generally stock engines with just the kit, and possibly an exhaust. I don't see why you should only boost at 4 psi if the fuel is handled correctly. Technically that would be the limit of the 270 cc stock injectors, but IIRC, the FMax kit comes with 370 cc injectors and the means to control them... I.E. a JWT ECU, in which case you should have no problems turning up the boost.

that's cool, i didn't know that the fmax turbo kit came w/ upgraded 370cc injectors. so basically if my whole car was just stock w/ an exhaust n an fmax turbo kit, i could run 7psi when i'm driving then turn it up to like 10-14psi whenever needed? would there be ne problems that may occur if i wanted to keep it relatively stock for a long while, but still keep the boost at 7psi (what would need to be done, basic stuff)?
