Ok, I Have a 95 240SX SE With A S13 SR20DET With A Turbo Tune, Forge Wastegate Actuator, Apex i N1 Full Exhaust, Greddy Downpipes/Test Pipes, Greddy RS BOV, and other non horsepower means of modifications.

What is The Max PSI I cant Run Out Of The T25? I Have The Wastegate Actuator Running It To About 14-16 PSI.

Is that Cool?

Excuse Me For The Question This Is My First SR20 In My Life :D

Thanks

What do you mean by Turbo Tune? If its still on stock injectors and fuel system, I'm thinking 14-16psi is too high...

i have a xat tuning for 9psi low and i think 14 psi high just want to know if that is safe.

i dont floor it regularly so on average i hit liek 10-12 psi but when i do floor it, it hits 14-16 psi.

the rod is just held in place by a clip and it can only go in one way. If you look at it, I'm sure you can figure it out

14 is pushing it. Don't expect it to be reliable if your doing that.

my buddy runs 14 psi 12-14 should be ok nothing more. Even the fsm says no more then 14 psi on this little turbo. Make sure your afr's are safe though.

yup 12-14 is safe. It'll run rich until you get it tuned.
