Message	"At stage III, addition of intercoolers will let you run 17psi safely, and not detonate" I was sort of hoping since my auto cams and turbo housings won't flow as much air top-end as the equivalent 5-speed items, that'd I'd have some "spare" fuel to throw at the engine and reduce the risk of detonantion at 15+ psi of boost. How about raising the fuel pressure via an aftermarket FPR, coupled with some used intercoolers and an AFC (Apex'i NEO)? With some dyno time could I come out with a decent increase in power safely? I'm only talking about a few runs or a couple seconds of full boost at a time during my comute. Just some quick blasts, nothing like running a 1/4 mile for 12+ seconds @ WOT and full boost. Thanks, Mike --------------------------------------------------------
