That's only 25 miles of 15 second bursts of boost. I think it's sustained driving at high boost where things go wrong.]

Fine tuned with a fuel pressure reg and a safc2 (map sensor controller), just tweaked by me on the road.
Oh I see, so they are like a halfway step between OEM and a full standalone ?

Usual bolt ons and boost upto 1.2bar. I could be lucky but i doubt it.
I said upto 1.2bar but i rarely went up to that. Don't wanna sound like a smart ass but i always had my own limiter in my brain that eased off for fear of detonation
I just set my boost to 1.1bar then trimmed the duty.
I'm sure there are plenty others.
Now with low compression pistons and WI I've done all i can to protect against detonation so i can relax a little

Nice job - very fast too
What are your doing map-wise on the G4? Are you leaving as is? If not, have you thought about getting it run in on the dyno and then straight to power mapping?
Whoever maps it, make sure they look after cylinders two and three with fuelling. It was this that killed my engine last year (ringland on 2 due to running lean) so this time around I've made sure they know what they're doing prior to mapping (different mapper, needless to say!).
