I have an 87 Turbo II, I have a Bonez street competition intake and an Apex'i N1 exhaust with 3" downpipe and exhuast, I also removed the stock fan and installed an electric one that is a little bigger. Is there anyhting i can take off the motor to make it go faster?? (Belt to Air Pump??)



What should my car run the way it sits?

If you still have a catalytic converter then you need your air pump. You should be looking at some type of fuel enrichment soon, especially if you get rid of the converter, and maybe a front mount intercooler.

You need to buy a boost gauge to see how much boost you're running. You'll need some more fuel if you're running more than 8-10 PSI. Do you have a fuel cut defencer?

your car should run low 14's . i would get a boost gauge and go with a manual boost controller like this http://www.boostvalve.com

What's the factory boost limit on an S4 TII? Since I am only hitting 6 psi right now, I might want to bump mine up a little. I don't want to put my FCD back on, though...I like having my timing adjust for boost.
