Just watch those manual boost controllers, they boost surge alot more than electronic ones. And just like JW said, better gauge. I have a friend who runs a shimmed wastegate at 9PSI all the time and he hasn't blown his head gasket but be careful, the factory manual specifically says don't run more than 8 for extended periods.

would i have to re-gauge cuz the supra has a turbo gauge already could i just use that without buyin a new one. so no more then 8 makes sense since the stock gauge says 8 max on the dash display. hit me back

the stock one is old and only goes to 8psi. a new one will be more accurate and have a wider range.

but to run it over 8 would be more of a risk for now. can i keep the old one im not lookin to destorythe engine, and my pockets kinda empty so is there like a major issue using the old one

will this fit a 87 supra
