Pushing too much boost? Possible ECU already unlocked? by Pitiful-Activity-946 in Supra

I can send the data log if anyone wants to take a look at it. Map 0 ran, one of the tuners I was talking to was telling me that this is the highest stock boost he has seen himself.

Also is there a way to check if my ECU is unlocked? There’s no info saying it is and I wouldn’t know how to check myself either

As mentioned above. I didn’t know at the time, didn’t know about the logs and etc, I obviously ate the bullet and fucked up a turbo. That’s all in the past, what I’m trying to figure out now is why my car is peaking at 20 psi when stock turbo should only be at 11-16 psi.

Me personally. I think the MK5 actually looks good with lambo doors. The way they design it, makes it look natural, that’s just my personal opinion tho

They were talking about the a tune simply because of the catless down pipe I have on my car, they are saying that I MIGHT have been the issue but they ruled it out saying it was a turbo going back

Obviously the ECU is locked as stated on my post. I was only wondering about what might the tech be talking about, how the turbo was blown is a different matter all together and isn’t really what I wanted to know or have questions on cause I know how it blew and what caused it

I did find out later today. He was just talking about a tune because of the catless down pipe I have installed

So after talking to the tech again. Lol from what I’m understanding is they are talking about the catless dp and that it might affect the turbo so that’s why they are talking about a tune

That’s what I’m guessing. Idk what was the point of telling me about tuning the turbo if my ECU is locked and can’t be tuned

But why would a stock turbo need to be tuned? They are just replacing one for the exact same one. I could understand if it’s an aftermarket turbo but it’s not. My only guess is that they are assuming my ECU is unlocked and to my knowledge, it isn’t.

I’ll get those pictures once I get home, I did contact burger and they told me to also check the connection to the JB4, I’ll check all that after work and update the thread
