If it was mine, i would paint the front bumper beige/brown to match instead of that crap white/silver. The wheels would also be beige or brown. I'd probably also paint the chrome/plastic grill brown. I think white walls (or beige walls) would also be fitting... ok got it: brown wheels and beige wall tires.

When something is as right as a beige/brown 2 tone paint job, it needs to be applied EVERYWHERE.

Oh yeah, and curtains. And fuzzy dice.

What does he mean boost is turned up to 10 psi? 14+ was stock.

No it wasn't. 7-9 psi was stock on the T1 cars, 11psi on the T2 (intercooled) cars. The MAP sensor has a range to 14.7psi and the EFI maps will of course work to that point, but the wastegate scheduling will try to keep the boost level to whatever the stock setting is.

Basically this will need a reprogrammed ECU and a 3 bar MAP sensor or a manual boost control solution to reach higher than stock boost levels.

Maybe I'm thinking the super 60 ECU??

In reply to DrBoost:

Nah, that's configured for some specific parts and is too expensive compared to using some of the custom calibrations available in the community with just ROM burner and some effort with a soldering iron.
