What is the most boost I can run mostly stock ?
I have the following:
Perrin short ram intake
Prodrive catback
Ported throttlebody
Boost gauge.
What is the most boost I can safely run on 93 octane on the street? I have heard it is 18 psi ???
Thanks.

My rec. is first to put the stock intake box with a Green or K&N Filter (More torque)Dyno proven by me the intake quits 16hp because too many air enters the turbine and the stock computer go crazy.
My rec. is to put an assesport stage 1 or a reflash and go to 16 psi but remember with stock intake box. The aftermarket intake is good when you have bigger mods. and a tunned computer.

you cant just raise the boost to get more power, does not work like that. I really would recommend you get a protune or even a stage 1 basemap off the accessport. you will get more power out of it and a lot safer than just raising the boost.
if the cars running good right now, leave it alone and save up for a accessport or ECUTEK or any other EM. you'll be happy you did.
