Boost creep? - Toyota Nation Forum : Toyota Car and Truck Forums

I recently sent my turbo away for a rebuild and a 50 trim upgrade, and I also bought a 3" dp, cat-back, turbo manifold, and intake; and I'm wondering if anyone thinks boost creep will be an issue? I also plan to get an intercoller and mbc before I run it on the street. Any thoughts?

What boost pressure are you looking to run?

I suspect you would have more of an issue with spikes, than creeps.
Chances are you will not have either.

I'm not really sure, I don't want to do any fuel mods yet and I don't want to run more than like 15 for quite some time. Do you think that a mbc will help with spikes?

I would not recommend ever running more than 15 psi with the CT2^, even a modded one, unless the actual turbine housing was modded.

In order to get to 15psi, you will need a boost controller.

Can I get to 15psi without fuel mods? I'm not even sure if i'll run that much right now...but I do want more power.

15 psi on a CT26 (even modified) will not be a challenge for the stock fuel system as long as everything is in proper running order.

Excellent. I hope to post some pics after I have everything installed and have had it on a dyno(personal satisfaction

). Thanks.
