d17a2 turbo??

whats the max psi i could go on an engine with 122,000miles without destroying everything? I will eventually buy some JE forged pistons for lower compression but anyone know of a good turbo kit for it also, Is there a way i can immediatly turn off the boost as to say i was doing normal driving and than took it to a track? i know there are some controls that you just turn the **** and get automatic boost but i wanna know if i can just turn it off or just run 1 psi without having to do a bunch of work?

Everything you want to know is on this forum and others (honda-tech has a lot of good stuff too), start searching around. Chances are you're not going to spoon fed.

This link might help tho

Re: d17a2 turbo??

Yeah, I can be sitting at a stoplight and flip a switch and my blow off valve goes off, sounds really cool. Then I flip another switch and have 25 psi instantaneously. Its pretty awesome!
