How much can I push?

I am getting a new JY setup and I need to know how much boost I can push. The setup includes, a rebuilt T25, sidemount IC, Bosche BOV, and all the nessacary piping and lines. The setup will be on my 89 ZC with stock internals and no other management. My question is, How much boost can I safely push without risking my motor until I can afford good management? Any input would be gladly appriciated.

none...

just be patient, and don't just throw ---- on your car...
get your turbo, manifold, etc.. clean em up nice, and stick em on a shelf in the garage until you can hook it all up together, and you have the proper fuel management..

that is probably the most idiotic thing one could do, esp after spending all that money on a ZC in the 1st place!

you could always run some DSM injectors and a AFC or SMC ..till you get that setup..for management..then sell it to someone when you step up.

Hmm well lets see...

Had a ZC in my old 91 HB ran my T-25 setup on it. I had A/F meter and a FPR those would work just fine. Never had any probs. Boost on ZC with stock internals sould be no more than 8 psi. Daily driver 4-6 psi. I had an EVC so it was at the touch of a button. ZC is an awesome upgrade on CRX or Civic (4G).

Later.
