Turbo upgrades

Looking to get more turbo psi. Already have tunner,intake,etc. and only getting about 30 psi. Is there any thing or parts that can be done ( or bought).

Other than nitrous, not currently. ATS is working on some things that will be released soon (hopefully), but other than removal of the VGT and installation of a custom system (Hypermax, $12k) you don't have much choice.

My suggestion would be to switch to custom tuning (although much more than 30 on a stock turbo just isn't reasonable) or spray nitrous and run aftermarket injectors and fuel system.

Don't forget, "boost" is only a representative measurement of the air entering the intake charge. You have to have fuel present, too, to utilize it.
