You need an adjustable actuator to raise the boost to 1 bar but don't otherwise you'll cook the engine unless its done with the right parts.

You'll need the supporting modifications to help it run 1 bar.

These are all the basic modifications just as:

Uprated manifold
Exhaust
Bigger intercooler (front mounted one)
Adjustable actuator

Theres more but i cant think right now. You can just turn it up if you want but it wont last very long


Hope that helps

I had mine running a bar with uprated manifold, exhaust + decat, intercooler, fcd, fpr and a bigger fuel pump. I used a jam actuator so didnt bother with a boost controller but if u use an hks actuator you may well need one?

Should get the basics because then you can build from there.

After market Air filter (apexi are good)
After market Exhaust (Blitz nur spec :))
After market manifold (important)
After market front mounted intercooler (HDI)
Adjustable actuator (toy tuning or hks)

You would be set then for turning the boost up a bit but its not worth running 1 bar if it blows up. I had the above and handling mods such as coilovers and running 0.7 (before fuel cut) and it felt fast and nippy :)

Ive sent you a pm as ive got an adjustable actuator for sale :)
