So your saying order the cal with 29psi as the max level then Im safe to adjust boost in between what the WGA allows and 29psi, right?
Im not trying to make a race car. Just a fun street car that I can drive all week then play with on the weekends. I never intended on running more than 20-22psi(thought that it would get unsafe much past that).

Injector size(for aforementioned max boost level)+40's
Would I be better off getting +20s and keeping the boost a bit lower?

AFPR base settingstock which is 55 psi
So keep the stocker in there and sell the Accufab?

You don't need an afpr with a cal. Clutch I'd use a t2/t3 combo. I agree with Simon. Manual boost control is almost fool proof. With the turn of a knob you can dial in boost rather than adjusting cal and burning chips. Set to 29psi and set mbc to 20 done. I'd stick with the +40s too. What fuel pump u running?

Can you get the 2 step function? I got that for the t&c and it works pretty good.

If you have it set for 29 psi, which is the limit for a 3 bar, then if you ever want to turn it up, then you have it already done and no need for a recal. Use the MBC or an EBC to run any boost level you want.

Stick with +40's, that way, you never have to buy injectors again, unless your shooting for 500 whp.

Keep the AFPR, custom cals are close but sometimes they need tweaking, if you find your a bit lean or rich, you can adjust the fuel pressure to suit.

You say you want a safe, low boost street car but we all say that, :banghead:
