it depends on a lot of variables...i personally wouldn't run it until you get tuned...

I recently went meth to. im running around 26-27psi and feels great. I say dont do anyting until you get tuned with it. Also I just found corrosion on my intake pipe and am in the process of changing to stainless steel so you might wanna do the same.

If you have to run it, put in a small nozzle, and fill with distilled water. Start cleaning things up

Well to be honest I think you need to open that thing up a lil before pushing lots of boost. Get yourself a downpipe and exhaust you could tune the car at 24 on pump and with 50/50 mix I'd say 26-28psi would be decent

On my old motor and when I had a evo 8 turbo I was pushing 32psi but the motor that's in car now and the 9 turbo I'm only at 28psi right now
