      which chip did you buy, where from and how much?

      The majority of chips range from 0.8-1.0bar (11.6-14.5) from what I can figure out.

          think the amount of boost also depends on what other mods u have...

          my wett chip can hold 1.4 bar quite easily, but i'm running a K04 and EBC...

              just another question...

              could i use my manual boost controller instead of the n75 with a chipped car? because on my stock, with mbc i feel the jolt of power kick in where the n75 is like smooth.

                  iirc, the mbc works in conjuction with the N75 and will help increase the boost pressure.

                  although i know a few who have gone this route, it is generally not recommended as the mbc settings are "hit or miss" type.

                  an alternative would be to change the N75 to one with a more aggressive setting...

                              1 BAR = 14.504 PSI at 0 FT Above Sea Level, so that makes 1.8 BAR = 26.107 PSI.
