vy lumina v6 A4
injectors, tune, turbo, cooler, boost gauge and a 2 bar map sensor. I run 12psi on a daily basis with a heavy foot through an internaly stock v6.

wow didnt realise the v6's ran such low static comp, i figured they would be up around 9 or 10:1 at least.
Sorry i build jap cars so used to different tech.

ecotec runs 9.4CR and they will live with 10psi all day as well. hell proflow was running 14psi i believe on a stock engine. then they upgraded the headgaskets to cometic MSL and pumped up the boost. the V6's certainly aren't high strung like jap 4cyl engines
