Is this possible in a map?

Usually, my boost drops after 5000rpm... which is fine when going through the gears.

I was wondering if there was away of having a map to make the turbo keep boosting after 5000rpm in 5th gear to achieve a greater top end?

You can request the boost but a K03 isn't capable of providing it at that RPM, especially if still using the OE SMIC.

Heat is the biggest enemy here. If you want it to pull harder towards the redline invest in a decent FMIC (that includes the pipework) or consider a bigger turbo :)

nope.

tiny turbo. out of puff at th ehigher revs

want more, fo k03s which holds on a little longer up top, or more again, k03/4 hybrid

its not the map, its the hardware which is your limitation

So couldnt the map be made so it gets the most out of the turbo within its range of power then...

or is that basically it with the stage 1 map...Without risking damage to the turbo..??

It's called a Revo Stg 1? Kicks in the power at low-mid range where it has the most grunt

As above, a standard K03 is too small to hold any decent power at higher RPM

you already likely have it.
log request boost vs actual to see what is being asked for and if its being achieved

>5krpm power on k03 is not likely - mechanically they are simply out of compressor flow at those rpms
