How much boost for a FPGreen DD on 93

As the title says how much boost is most people running on an FPGreen or 20G for a DD Evo 8 on 93 Octane. I know it depends on the tune but in average what is a safe number for a DD? Is 24 PSI OK? This is not on meth or race fuel. I mean daily drive on pump 93 octane.

I have nothing to say about the FP green but to say that 24 psi on pump should be ok with a good tune. I have the FP RED daily driven but I have meth at 30psi. 24 psi isn't that bad.

24psi is fine. might even be able to squeeze a few more psi out of pump gas. All depends on the tune

peaking 26psi is ok, What I'm interested in is how much can someone hold to redline? 24psi?

Holding 24-26 is generally about it, depending on how extreme the setup is. But usually that's with a spike higher than that.

So spiking 28psi tapering down to 26psi by redline would be ok? If the tune is good enough. I'll try this eventually. Maybe in a couple of days when its not wet out.

my car spikes to 27 psi on my evo because i have the o2 dump. i'm waiting until i get a aquamist meth kit before i get on the accellerator, cause i dont want my engine to blow, i could get on it but with one bad tank of gas the motor will blow.

im still getting tuned.... but if it helps im currently at 28psi tapering to about 23psi at 7krpm and 20psi by 8000krpm(which is my new redline). Knock free and on 93 octane pumpgas. Its all about the tune... this turbo is pretty damn efficient from what i'm learning. My AITs arent even going up during the pulls. (we started at 24psi... then 26psi.. now 28psi) Being below 26psi on a green just doesnt make sense... its not going to be much better than a IX stock turbo below that level. Marginal at least...

Honestly I only run mine at 21psi daily. I just bumped it up to about 24 the other day, but still tinkering with my EBC to hold it. .

Id like to set my first stage at 21 for every day stuff. and second stage for like 25-26 for pump to play with the locals. Then +30 for race gas for 3rd stage.

21PSI isnt anything special though IMO. I have the boost ramp up for initial kick in the pants, but other than that its so so IMO. Im used to 61mm+ turbos, so this is kinda plain jane to me.
