·There is a lot of talk about max boost that you can run safely on an E6 and most people seem to agree that the max is about 1.4 bar. Am I correct in understanding that this is 1.4 bar of sustained boost for most of the rev range?
My main question is what is the max overboost in the lower rev range , say 2750-4000rpm (then tapering off after this), that would be considered safe on stock internals? I would think that a brief 0.1 - 0.2 bar overboost to say 1.6 bar in this rpm range would contribute considerably to the torque and give the car even more of a kick during hard acceleration. I've been of the belief that it is usually high boost at high revs that make most engines go bang so as long as the boost was tapered back after the brief overboost shouldn't it be OK?
