Well, sorta. Depends on the car in question. Let's hear the specifics. I'll
assume it is a 5ktq for this post. Then you can either
a) get a spring that'll keep you under 1.6 bar
b) get a big, say 1.8bar, spring and manually ground the FP relay. Not very
safe, but it works. :)
either way the car takes on a whole new personality with the stiffer spring.
With the 1.8 the boost comes on much quicker and lower in the revs (much
less WG cracking) and pulls like a raped ape all the way through 5g's, well,
you get the idea....
Take care,
