Default Anyone oppose my projected boost preferences before I go to ASP for Stage II+ software/flashing??...

I have come to the conclusion that after countless hours of searching on this board, a safe spike on k03's is 18psi max on 93oct. That said, a taper set to 14-15psi by redline is said to be best to keep efficency of the small k03's. I can always increase the timing when on 100oct via lemmi so I'll hold off on the special programs for now. So the thing to look for in choosing who's software to go with is with this in mind...

Default 18 would definitely be the most I'd recommend running.

I ran old code GIAC that spiked above 18 (I saw the needle hit 20 a few times) and now I fear that my turbos may see an early demise. I clipped my boost at 17 with an MBC in parallel and felt more comfortable.

My ASP spikes to 16, and while the torque rush GIAC is gone, the ASP sauce is deceptively powerful and smooth. At higher RPMs in higher gears, the K03s simply fall on their faces, so super high boost is kinda pointless.

I think I may have them send me a slightly more aggressive file (17 spike with a 14-15 taper)

So it's final. 18 spike, 14-15 taper. I'm going to bed. ASP 2+ in the morning =)

1 bar at redline is in the efficiency range of the K03?
