    Well depends on your set up ,But I would not run no more then 3-7 psi depending on your set up, with it being tuned then 7 daily thats as fas as I would go due to I wouldnt want to keep fixing or buying motors

    most stock honda sleeves can handle up to 450-500, but the b20 are more prone to crack at lower power levels. i would say about 300 on the b20 to be safe at the most.

    boost is a relative term because one turbo at 5psi is less than 5psi from another turbo. i've tuned b20 vtec turbo's to 280ish w/o sleeves cracking.
