yeah ive found many uninformed local sr owners running 17 or more on a stock t25 and i always let them no this is not good. there are also many that claim to be making like 300whp on like 18 psi stock turbo and internals. oh well

You're really getting out of the turbo's efficiency above 15/16psi, at which point your pushing hotter air. Not to mention, stock 370cc SR injectors are in dangerous duty cycle territory that high. Also, make sure you have a FMIC if you're running over 10psi. The stock side mount is a greater limiting factor.

anything above 14 your going to blow the seals and everything after a while (make that 14 psi pass then turn it down)
