Boost Pressure Levels

[Cupra_Chris]

Hi Guys,

Just want to clarify what the stock PSI is for the Cupra 240?

Took mine out for a run and its peaking at 24.4PSI?
Im assuming this is very high for a non-remapped car?

I am running a K&N air filter (panel) Milltek Cat Back and Forge DV - Although i doubt this would have that much of an effect on the pressure?

Thanks

That does seem high. I know a standard FR runs just under 1 bar and about 1.2 at stage 1. So 1.6 bar for a standard car seems high. Someone will be able to tell you shortly what it actually should be.

The FR's run a bit lower i think as they use the K03 turbo, Im assuming around 16/17? Still concerning its running that high...

Yeah they do a bit but not that much. I think I once read Cupra runs around 1.2 as standard, but that could be me not remembering properly.
