Yep no worries at all, like EVLGTZ said the SC is the only thing which will feel the stress

I actually get more like 15psi at times from my pulley kit; also had boost cut once too 8O

Yeah boost cut has only happened once, on a cold night in fourth gear at a highly illegal speed

But yeah I get 14psi most of the time so both must be in good condition, and as they should be, only got 114kms on the clock

I'm up to 159,000km on my August 1991 Levin - and I do about 20,000km a year, so 114,000km on a 1993 Levin is not unreasonable.

More likely to have been speed cut in an AE101. The ECU doesn't map higher than 14psi.

Na wasnt speed cut. I thought the boost cut was 14.6psi or something? Im sure there is a small margin of error with boost gauges as well
