.12 bar is less than 2 psi.
.12 kPa =~16 psi.

at 14.5 pounds, how much boost can you max out at? I can't bring it above 12.5 bars. Normal?

Not sure what you mean. 14.5 psi is the measurement for boost... that's what it is, 14.5 pounds. I would guess that max safe boost on the VF39 is ~15.5-16 psi, but I don't have that turbo personally.

I am currently looking into adding a dual stage boost controler to my wifes xt for when I drive it on the weekends. Since the engines are both 2.5, Would it be safe to bump it to 16lbs psi, I beleave stock is 11.5. Only other mods i plan on doing is k&n and silencer removed
thanks
