CIS turbo power/boost limits

[JShadzi at aol.com]

Mike, I tend to agree more with Scott than Ned on this one, IME, the CIS 
system is all about maxed by 250hp, and this is more of a function of air, 
not fuel.  The air flow plate will by maxed by 15psi, anything over that is 
being fueled unpredicably at best.  This is the reason I ended up going to 
EFI, I just couldn't get anything more out of CIS.

<< Hello,
 I am wondering what power/boost limit for fuel is on the Audi Turbo cars.
 Ned Richie from Intended Acceleration says its good for "in excess of 20psi"
 in the "Turbo Magazine" article posted on his site.

 This sounds good to me, but Scott Mockery's site says the flow plate maxes
 out at 1.8bar at 5500 rpm.
 Anybody have any BTDT with the 5kt cars knowing how much boost the stock
 fuel injection is good for? I may want to run the stock turbo fuel system on
 my next project for a wile before I upgrade to EFI.
 Thanks a lot,
 Mike
