·Apologize for asking a question which I'm sure has been addressed endless times in the past, but what is a safe boost level for a stock/very mildly modded Evo? I've done a search on here, and seems there is no one consensus answer. Assuming stock boost at 1.0 bar, I've heard/read everything from 1.1 to 1.3 bar as safe (i.e., no detonation) for a stock engine.
My car only has a K and amp;N filter upgrade and a newly installed boost controller/gauge. I intend to get an exhaust upgrade soon, but not just yet. I've set boost at 1.1 for now, as I don't relish the idea of destroying my motor!
Not sure how much of a difference this makes, but the weather is very warm/humid where I live.
Thanks and cheers!
