Depending on the i/c between 6/8psi i never ran mine without a i/c so i couldnt tell u how much it was .But with my big fmic it was 6.5 /7 psi.Dont worry to much about it cause u can always make a adjustable wastegate to lower it ,if u think its to much

You will be fine at 8 with the hack and 450's, just keep your timing and intake temps in mind.
With the bluebox 8psi? Hows that holding up.

8 with the blue box is holding up fine after 1000 miles. I had planned on ditching it, but after posting and reading up on turbod16.com I found people that have run up to 11 with it. It is crappy for my gas mileage, and I think it is still running a lil rich, b/c my exhaust has a gassy smell to it. Overall I am pleasently surprised, but do plan on upgrading to the AFC hack once I win the lottery or rob somebody or something
