What PSI on Race Gas (Stock turbo)

Hey fella's curious what kind of boost everyone runs on race gas. I will probably be using 118 leaded. I was thinking 26-27 spike. Thanks

Just turn up the boost with some good gas. Don't have a piggy back or stand alone.

28 psi is the most i would run it race gas. That is what my tuner ran on mine for race gas withno issues.

I think if you pull the wastegate hose, that you'll only be able to push the wastegate spring psi (11psi). Pulling hoses is a supra thing. 27psi spike tapering off to 24 is good enough to me.
