Its really not a valid question on its own and even my first reply was wrong. The amount of boost has nothing to do with valve springs etc . The real questions are how much power and how many revs and to what use is the engine being put?

The amount of boost does relate to valve springs as the boost pressure is working against the inlet valve, but there's way more to worry about before that.

Maybe op is talking about tyre pressure?

you could probably hold 35psi with your thumb.

Yes it does have to do with valve srings as mentioned above, but I think what everyone is getting at, is there is way more things to do than just list whats needed to run 35psi. Sounds like you want people to do the home work for you. I have never met someone that just told what to do, and people just run out and do it. There would be some kind of human intervention on your part.

Next time start out by simply spending time list what you have at the moment parts mods and go from there. Or you will just get simply answers mate.

Most people I know associate boost with speed or power. Hmm. A friend of a friend of mine had a dodge neon just as he learned how a waste gate worked he cranked the boost to 30 psi and now walks to work. Once in a while I give him a ride if im heading that way. And all.he tells me is "man that car was crazy at 30 psi." I wounder even today if he learned anything.

    • I’m not sure what happened I told them about sonic tunes free OTS tune and the next the I know .. I was booted..   To funny 
    • Yea - I mean I've seen my fuel pump which is decades old and uh, while I'm not saying this with real knowledge... but I sure get the ick at using anything in the fuel system that produced the state of that pump. Many years ago I went through multiple pumps (and strainers) before I dropped the tank to clean it out with extreme violence. I'm talking the car would do maybe 50km before coming to a halt, which resulted in me cleaning out the filter with some brake cleaner and going on my way. None of my stuff ever looked like what came out of your fuel tank. I don't think I'd be happy with it unless every single component was replaced (or at least checked/cleaned/confirmed to be clean here).
    • I'm not going to recommend an EBC pad. I don't like them. Just about anything else would suit me better. I've been using Intima pads for a while now.
    • Agreed, and in particular the earth strap that should go from the subframe to the chassis but it often broken or left off. There is a section in the R32 workshop manual you can follow for troubleshooting if you don't see anything suspicious, and depending where you are (there is no location on your user profile) you should be able to get your hands on a second hand replacement unit still if needed
    • Yeah they mention as a R34 for 2.5 Turbo...but then again thos "small" were also for R34 by that different site. But i look into it and that 310mm EBC is for R34 GTT. And by those you linked the specs are the same 🙂    EDIT: I found these on one site here: DBA 4000 series T3 DBA42304S They are 310mm...and it says are for R34GTT...are there good? EDIT2: ok they have pads too.  What "color" should i get for street use? I dont want/need some noisy ones...(and if they are not that dusty that is good too)
