Steviekid Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 I bought this restrictor ring from Chris Wilson to hold my car at around 0.9 - 1.0bar so I could fine tune the boost with an EBC. I was too impatient to wait until it arrived though, so fitted my de-cats with the 1.2bar ring supplied to discover the car sat at 0.9 bar anyway! This has never been fitted but has a tiny amount of surface rust due to the fact it's sat in my garage for six months. Not that that matters. I paid around £25 plus delivery. Looking for £15 delivered. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm presuming Chris Wilsons stuff is pretty decent though! Without a mechanical or electronic boost controller you won't get more than that.

wkdtime Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 MK47 a little insight for ya, not all JDM TT's over boost when fully decatted...and yet no one on this forum has thoroughly explained why, i can name quite a few number of members who are full decat, no ring and use an EBC to increase boost.

penguin Posted September 7, 2006 Share Posted September 7, 2006 Yeah it's weird! Like I say, I only get 0.9bar with a 1.25bar restrictor ring could be you've got a restrictive exhaust - i'd say stick to around 1.1 bar if you can Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
