Posted March 19, 201015 yr comment_312973 Hey guys, new to the forum here. I have a 72 Datsun 240z with the l28et swap out of I believe and 82 280. my current setup is megasquirt fuel/spark management240sx throttle body1 inch throttle body spacerhigh performance coil pack4 row MSA racing radiator and electric fant3/t4 garrett turbomanual boost controlercustom 3 inch downpipe3 inch straight threw exhaustfmicgreddy bovcenterforce df clutchrci fuel cellmsd external fuel pumpr200 with cv axel swap and nismo 2 way gtlsd with a 3.59 gearmy question is what is a safe/good amount of boost to run? I have heard on the stock turbo 10-12psi in max but I have the t3/t4 hybrid turbo. The reason I ask is last night I took the car out for the first time (I re-did a bunch over winter) and the car hit 20psi. I wasn't expecting to get that much so I want to make sure its not over the motors limit, and if it it was should I turn it down to? Thanks for any help!

March 19, 201015 yr comment_312978 How much boost you can run is mostly determined by the fuel used and the quality of the engine tuning. You can burn at piston at 5psi and/or run just fine at 20psi.
