iv just been out in the g40 with NO belt slip and the 18% pulley its running just under 16psi fom what i can see when im not hanging on lol

will i need the 1.5 bar map sensor?

hayesey

you'll get away with 16psi on the standard one I'd say, as long as it's been mapped well.  How long the map sensor will last is anyone guess.  Maybe five centuries, maybe five minutes but since that's only 1.5psi over standard then I reckon it'll be reet.

You should focus on FLOW, not boost

Well I am using a 5pk belt along with my eaton and i barely ever see any belt slipping! You just have to tighten it and maybe replace it every 3-4 months cause it wears out! That's what I do! and its a 10 minutes job!
