The motor can handle more than the FMU. I would say 6psi to be safe and 8psi if you feel lucky.

What size is this turbo?

No. Not with just an FMU. You probably could, but I wouldn't do it.

What would it take to run about 9 to 10 psi on my prelude? Will i have to do internals?
Thanks for all the info
