Planning to raise the boost / fuel soon.

Car is a late intercooled 940. How far before the turbo becomes out of its efficiency range?

I think 15-18psi would be fine, you could always put in a air temp gauge to monitor the outlet temp. of the compressor.
I actually think the compressor is able to flow enough air to max out the Injection pump with a good inter-cooler, but not sure I have not tried it myself. Yet.

Chris, are you running the standard fibre head gasket, or the MLS steel one?

I'm running 16psi on mine but also have the MLS.
