t16
 
i kno the Mahles piston arent as good as forge but when i was 22 i had a 220 gti which i converted to a turbo running 18psi with a T28 turbo with out any issue cos i had the fueling set up cos when i was 1st ran on the rollers it was under fueling around 13.5psi once the fuel pressure and and fueling was set up it ran sweet and never gave me or my mate who had it off me any issue for over 3half years and it took a lot of sh1t over that time and still ran fine when he sold it where AE pistons 12psi is max really you wouldnt wanna go above 10psi to be safe

Well. fair play to you, standard boost is 11.7 psi, so all standard pistons are safe to that point at least:smile1:

The 620ti is a different car to a tomcat and the T16 engines are different in a few ways.

Also the loom colours are different on the different T16's. You also need to know if you are wasted or not before you start messing with wiring it.

Incorrect.

They over boost to 11.7 then drop back to 8-9 psi.

This is due to the boost solenoid.
