I would just stick with 10 as a daily driver that what im going to do. Sure it can take 11 maybe 12 but thats pushing it imo.

This question can't even be answered properly without knowing what his fuel mgmt will be like and without knowing what turbo he is using...

example, takes me 11psi with a 15g to make the hp a nice t3 60 trim would probably make with 8psi

1998 D16Y8, dual core FMIC, 1st Gen DSM BOV, 2inch pipe from turbo to IC, 2.5 inch from IC to B-series TB, custom manifold with K26 turbo, water and oil cooled. test pipe (cat bypass) 2.25 exh with straight thru resonator and muffler (might be upgrading to 2.5 later). DSM blue top 450cc injectors with uberdata and tuned by a friend with his wideband that has proven skills (hoping to learn how to wideband and uberdata at the same time).

anyone want to estimate how much power i can put down safely on pump gas ??
i will also try to dyno my car before mid next month
