Re:15-18psi on d16?waste?

I've been running 15lbs on my d16y8 for a couple weeks now. During the day, night, I really don't give a ----. It does have pistons, rods, and block posts. It's fun, but I really want a 40psi daily driver.

If you have any questions, feel free.

i think with good tuning you could pull off a 15 psi daily driver on stockj internals. I went a long time at 13 psi with a pretty basic setup, so it should work. 18 psi daily wont happen imo without internals though.

in my book the hack is decent for tuning...i was running an smc500, i wished i had an afc

. I just meant pretty much knowing what youre doing as far a tuning is concerned is necessary at higher boost levels. It not like at 7 psi where you can slap an fmu on there and call it a day.
