Boost cut defender will fix it, but there are other systems which are better in the long run, tunes such as standback, piasini etc etc will allow you to dial in the boost you want. Things like intakes and even exhausts can extend boost - more through the fact that the turbo is alreadu spinning and "carries on a bit more"
Fit at your own risk is a standard disclaimer. Make friends with your local dealer and guage their opinion on things - lol - my service manager has changed my pod filter for me on my CAI...
Boost levels upto 19PSI (some would say 21PSI) are safe - I have been running 17 for the past 12 months, now going to 19.
MPSGarage run theirs at 21PSI, but they have upgraaded a heap of stuff on their cars.
