I am now a tester for Burger Motorsport's JB4 piggyback (of BMW fame) for the Giulia!!!

Fun times... my Giulia is sitting around 310hp at the moment.  Looking at the logs I should be able to crank up the boooooost a bit more after talking it over with Burger.

What's your injector cycle look like?
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

I can't graph it, but looks like it can support around 400hp at 80%

Looks like you might need a giant blow off valve that sounds like the mating call of a peacock.

Playing with boost on a car that still has a loan out is not my idea of "a good idea".

A 10% bump in power isn't exactly stressful on anything

Well, uh... it's probably about 10% more stressful on the engine...

As long as he doesn't let it lean out or the injectors go static, he's fairly safe- as far as these things go and ignoring half a dozen lesser failures that might happen.
Maybe we need to start off small. I mean, they don't let you fuck the glumpers at Glumpees without a level 4 FuckPass, do they?

Engines have an engineered factor of safety of at least 200% or more... Meaning they are designed to mechanically handle at least twice the rated power as stock.  As long as you get there with proper fueling, spark, and boost control its not creating any more stress or wear.
