Hallman Boost PSI Problem

Hi everyone,
I just bought a Hallman lancer evo short kit, my mods are hks exhaust, tanabe dp, megan hi flow cat, greddy S bov, Helix IC Pipe kit, and I'm not gonna upgrade on the performance. What psi should I leave it on if I have stock turbo, stock fuel injectors and etc. I heard the engine will blow if psi goes over like 25 something like that. Any info/help would be highly appreciated.

19-20 with no tune, 21 with a tune, or flash.

I don't see the problem...what is it?

Are you saying that you installed an MBC, but that you are "not gonna upgrade on the performance"? If so, then set it at 18-19psi, which is stock for 03-04s. If you want to make good use of your MBC, then set it at 20-21 on 93oct.

I always run 20 psi in 4th and 5th. 1st and 2nd are a little lower, that's just the nature of a MBC as opposed to a EBC.

Where should the PSI be in 3rd, 4th and 5th gear. I got flashed by AL. Please let me know where should I be at when I fill it with race gas.
