Stage 1 so you won't throw overboost code. Before you get the adj wga you will need a boost gauge so you know where your boost is at and to adjust both wga and dual boost controller. ---------- 2005 Stone White SRT4 2004 Graphite Auto

Yes! I've been reading info about those codes, but some say that you get them at 16psi, 18psi, 20... one guy said that you get one ( I don't remember the number) if you have a really heavy foot do you know about this psi limit!? Also I've been looking for some pics to find a good place for the boost gauge, but most people has the pillar with 2 or 3 gauges... and I only want the boost one. Where should I place it!? ----------

Once you get stage 1 you will not get an overboost code, period. I wouldn't go over 18 psi or you'll have timing pulled. If you want to go over 18 safely there are steps you can take. How much are you in love with your clock? I know a guy who put his boost gauge there in his '06. Others have mounted it on the steering column, but to me that looks a little tacky. If you want more than one gauge a pillar pod does look nice. This was mine.

How did you circumvent the overboost code? I know you have a special set up but not everyone has the knowlege you do to run one. How come you never went with Stage 1 to enhance your set up? ---------- 2005 Stone White SRT4 2004 Graphite Auto

Stage 1 is the foundation for all power boosting mods. I would not even attempt to add a WGA or BC without it. You will pull timing and that is not a good thing. I don't even believe that S1 is available on 06' models yet. You will want to wait until you get it before upgrading to any power increasing mods. ---------- 2005 GT Vert, Autostick, Stage 1, MaxxFab 3" O2 Housing and Downpipe with Magnaflow Hi-Flow Cat, Custom Dynomax Ultraflow Exhaust System, Plastic Manafold, AGP WGA, AMX1397TTAB w/Apollo CAI, AGP UCP w/Greddy RS BOV, TurboXS MBC, Mopar BOP, Autometer Boost Guage, MSD Wires, NGK Iridiums gapped at .028, Turbo Timer, Upper and Lower Prothane Motor Mount Inserts, DCR Oil Flow Modifier, Chrome Appearance Package.
