I don't have a turbo, and I don't plan on getting one, but the max you can run it at safely on stock inernals is like 8psi. I remember reading that someone got dyno'd at 192whp with their 8psi turbo.

Max you can run daily driving is around 5-6psi, 8psi with no mods to fuel lines or anything you will blow something for sure. HKS got there civic up to 220hp before it blew pretty sure it wasn't all stock internals though, riceburnerex ran his at 200whp at 8psi I think. Good luck with your turbo project.

riceburnrex dyno'ed 197 at the wheels with 8psi. he didn't mod his fuel system other than adding another injector and i believe an AFC/EBC

how much you payin for your manifold
i was told 425 but that wasn't shipped?
internal or external wastegate?

as far as fuel, not sure
just lookin to get boosted at the moment.
i'll be happy with 5 to 6 psi daily if even that
im suppose to go to a couple shops in VA over my spring
break so i'll try to get back to you if i hear some news
or ideas

lataz
and good luck with you project too
