You cant just turn up the boost without a remap mate. The ECU's on the 1.8 20vt's are far to clever for there own good,. Not like the crap old jap cars where you just need a fuel cut defender and a adjustable boost valve.

Try the search button mate, you will finde everything you will ever need to know about tuning your car from there.

If you up the boost without a remap it will go into limp mode as you will hit the upper boost limit.

IIRC 6-9psi is about right for a mk3 cupra.

Have you actualy tryed searching mate?
