how do i control the psi

[crxsoldado]

I have two questions.How much boost is safe enought for a d16z6 engine. The other is how do i make it so i only spool up to that boost ?any help i apreciate thanx

 

[D See 2]

6-8 psi. wastegate actuator is how u control the boost... or a "boost controller"

 

[posol]

the wastegate is the ONLY thing that regulates boost.

a boost controller can only be used to UP the boost, and in doing so, it simply tricks the wastegate into making it stay closed longer

if the car is your daily driver, i wouldnt go more than 8psi. If you dont really work the boost all that much(i.e., driving like a jackass, flooring it and spooling to 7k every single stoplight), I would think 10 would be okay. I def wouldnt run any more than that on stock internals.
