Okay, i read many many threads on this, making sure that I don't like...blow my engine up when i install this thing...but a question. I was reading that to set it up, find out what the peak boost is on my chips...I don't know what my chips are. I just know they are aftermarket....any ideas?

best way to do it is set boost for optimum A/F, but if not, I think 15 psi is the standard for old chips...

Even with the best chips, going much over 15psi is a gamble. Vitesse recommends 15psi for pump gas...
