How do you fight it off?!

I'm running quite happily at 16psi and the urge to adjust the controller is getting stronger, especially with a track day on the horizon

I dont know how long a mini box will last but my guess is not very long. My Ford Type 9 box lasted less than 4000 miles with a lot less than 20 psi

Boost is like crack, highly addictive! Give in to peer pressure and turn it up :)

Be a man, disconnect the actuator and let the turbo do what it wants.
