i mean honestly if im at 400 on stock turbo or even at my numbers i think thats fine for me, i might not even want to add the hks cam until other people are running the same setup and i know how they been experiencing it...Im not lookin for anything more because then i would go build the motor and go from there...My friend has a evo 8 with gt35r 2.3 stroker kit everything custom done and i mean when ur over 600hp on c16 that is nuts and driving around daily with 550ish i mean not something i would like to be doing...Also alot of money spent

i want pics when a stock turbo blows from such high boost. all this money being thrown around why dont you just buy a bigger turbo? running the stocker at the razors edge of efficent dosent seem very smart IMO, but what do i know? seems like everone is using alky now a days to try and wonder outside of turbo flowcharts for numbers. 30psi for 30 seconds on a dyno dosent amount to nothing in a daily driver that can only push 25 constant. just my .02 thou

I would search meaningful info not retarded info. If you like going out of your turbos efficiency range then by all means turn the boost up to 100 while your at it.
good luck trying to get your stock turbo up to 45lbs let alone 100....many many people are taking their stock evo 8 turbos to 26 plus lbs(even though it drops alot by redline)on race gas or alky reliably...my own stock 10.5 setup makes an additional 33whp on a 110 octane tune with a 26lb spike so i dont know why his lager 9 turbo wouldnt gain a similar amount of power with alky/race gas tune and a stainless 02 housing...by the way most people would automatically assume he intends to raise his boost when he mentioned an alky kit in his near future

Then by all means push it harder then. Just cause you havent seen it yet doesnt mean it hasnt happened. This is theworst generlization I have heard.

So I guess you also dont beleive that there is wind either?

i sensed your sarcasm but i think you are wrong therefore i thought i would just add my 2cents...imho if the turbo doesnt blow and the tune is safe and the car makes the power regardless of the turbo being out of its efficency range then i see no problem with pushing the limits of the turbo

I never said it will blow I said it was out of its efficiency range which is therefore pointless and I was NOT wrong. Show me one thing where I was wrong.
