boost limits. whats too much?
i have a d15a3 boosted and im wondering if anyone knows the limits of this little engine as far as boost levels go. is there a boost limit on the engine alone or is it also dependent on the turbo? i guess what im asking is will a d15a3 with a t3 only get 10psi before parts fly and a t-25 nets you 15psi before kaboom happens or is it all dependent on the motor? if so what will the ew4 with a t3 handle?

people have made big power on little motors.. its all about preference. lots of things come into play... how many miles on motor, rebuilt, beat on it, baby it?
just think smart. if you want it to last dont over do it. if you dont care about the motor, keep crankin up the boost.
