TD05-16G with Standard Internals - Upper boost limit

[Paton]

Hi,

Got a TD05-16G kit fitted now to trial out before forging soon.

Anyone have any recommended upper limits for boost? Without blowing the engine to pieces.
Fuelling is currently managed with Jam ECU, ran it so far at about 0.9 bar and checks out fine on the wideband.
Obviously nowhere near its potential but looking to just safely see how it performs.

Baby steps - TD05 is a heavy hitter up high.

Get some knock detection if you can.

yeah good shout, cheers. Thinking something not too expensive like a Phormula KS-3.

My searching earlier failed to find this recommendation here of 1 bar - https://www.toyotagtturbo.com/community/index.php?threads/td05-on-standard-internals-fuelling.72624/

Did notice a lot more YouTube videos recently of forged builds so has provided the inspiration to give it a go.
