0-200k miles = no boost
200k-211k miles = 10-13psi
211k-212k miles = 15psi

Its okay to hate me ;D

Basically what it comes down to is if you have a turbo Honda and you haven't blown a motor at least once than your a ----- cause your not pushing it hard enough.

Well I'm going to keep adding power until it blows for some other cause than detonation. If you blow a motor by detonation then you're doing something wrong. If it blows from too much torque for the crank to handle, then it's just time for an upgrade.
Currently what I got is stock motor with pistons I machined for lower compression.
