fuel cut off keeps you from doing damage
maybe 12lbs at best

So does fuel cut off come in at 14psi? and If so then could I turn the boost up to 13psi and be fine?

the car will cover your ass

get ready to crap your pants if you've never expirenced FCO before .

i doubt you'll be able to get over 12lbs being in florida .
do you have a gauge to measure other than the stock gauge ?

I used to have a mitsubishi cordia turbo and i expirenced fuel cut off in that it feels like hitting a brick wall lol. Yeah i bought an autometer guage that goes up to 30 psi...my friend that lives near me has the same car and he runs his at 14 psi and he said he only hits fco when the manual boost controller "spikes" so i might just put mine at 12 for now until i get an electronic bc.
