Maybe wrong, maybe right.

I'm going to say approx 1700 psi...




Are you getting this? Catching on yet?

Psi is totally dependant on they size of the turbo. 14b at 10 psi is a lot less than gt30 at 10 psi. It's all about how many CFM's the turbo flows.

you mean is how soon the turbo will make boost ? i know there is math to it about how much boost a turbo will make.
what turbo would you consider for my set up ?

no I'm not talking about how soon a turbo will make boost. i'm saying a 14b at 10 psi will make xxx hp whereas a gt30 at 10 psi will make zzz hp. 10 psi on one turbo isn't the same as 10 psi on another turbo. The two will make a different ammount of hp at the same ammount of boost. Telling us you have a t3/t4 doesn't tell us ----. Telling us you have a .xx trim t3/t4 with an ar. of .xx/.xx will tell us alot more. At least then you could READ THE ------- FAQ'S which will point you in the direction of learning how to read compressor maps. Then you could pick a properly sized turbo for your build. So in a round about way of answering the original question of this thread: Your block may be able to handle 2 psi or 200 psi depending on which ------- turbo you are using. Last point... don't listen to a god damned person when they give the standard answer of "8-10 psi" because they don't know what the ---- they are talking about. They are just telling you something that someone told them that they heard from someone that they were told by their brother's sister-in-law's uncle's wife's dad. :-*

and learn how to speak/type trying to read you ---- makes my brain hurt.

All that crap and you couldn't just get a B18B block? I mean seriously the difference in the displacement can be had if you bored it out, which how the displacement is gained in the B20 block to begin with, I'm quasi-sure those cranks/stroke are the same.

And that's not even considering what B20 you have, because if you got the retard OBD0 block from a Prelude you are fucked. :1 :1 :1
