Still using the 3 bar. 32psi isn't that big of a deal.

...i see.... but is it still reliable beyond the 29.5 psi? I mean, how is it set up? is the voltage generated linear still?

Thanks!

On N20 Ari makes more power than me which put a hell of alot more stress on the motor than just all turbo. He actually cracks irons in half! Crazy ****.

people do that here too (crack plates in half!), its amazing how detonation or poor engine modification can cause that problem to sudenly appear *in most cases*

never seen it in a healthy 2 rotor regardess of power level ...... there has always been other problems at the root cause rather than the plates being *weak* or near their limit.

off topic sorry
