230K Boost

Hello all,
I have a 2005 230K and was wondering if anyone knew what the stock boost pressure is? I've had some trouble finding specs that detailed.
Thanks

Guess what happens when you bring the boost up in the 02 to the same level as the 03 to 05?

Search for ASP Racing Pulley or Kleeman or Brabus. They all have a pulley deal for the 2.3 L SC'ed engine in the 2002 Coupe's! Kleeman also has a kit on the way for the 1.8L engine as well and is working on an exhaust header for that as well.

Get the ASP if you have an 02. Its 35HP for 600bucks. You'll be surprised how much quicker 35HP will make your car.

No joke! Not that I condone street racing, but someone in a G35 was being a brat and tried to snake my lane. The ASP pulley gave me great power and I out-muscled him across the intersection and half way down the block. (He turned off after that.) I'm sure I surprised that G35 owner. An unlucky IS300 owner discovered the same thing yesterday! :p
