how many psi for a d16?
 
how many psi can a d16z6 handle with a fmu and 255 fuel pump? Im using a T3/T04B .60a/r .48a/r with a internal wastegate? Thanks.

dont listen to him. if you run over 50 psi of fuel pressure you could run 17.65lbs of boost all night long.

not over 8

maybe with vafc and some 450
you could go with 10

just remember that the fmu will be raising your fuel pressures to really high levels (which isnt good), and that its pretty much the worst form of fuel management there is. I ran 7 psi with an fmu and i wouldnt go much beyond that.

Haha I am lazy today... :P

Q.
How much Boost can I run on my stock D-series motor? (I.E d16/d15)

A.
It depends on a lot of things, how well maintained your motor is, what type of engine management you will be using. If you are not going to be using any type of engine management don't expect it to last. We have boosted cars with no management and have had no problems, but the boost levels were very low. I highly recommend getting some type of fuel management. First for a low budget setup, go with a FMU (fuel management unit) these work good with stock injectors around 6-7psi, it is also good to have a intercooler on these setups to keep charge temps cooler, a lesser chance of detonation. Another option is the AFC hack with some larger injectors. Depending on size, you can run 7-10 psi if it's properly tuned. (on a stock fuel pump) People with Standalone Engine management systems (Zdyne/Hondata) with a minimum of 440cc injectors and a fuel pump, I would say 8-11psi.
