    yeah but like ase-tec said before. your pushing your luck. stock n/a internals are not ment to hold boost anyways. so they arent going to take much abuse from the boost produced. i wouldnt run 10 on a stock motor id say 7 or 8.

    before i did my c5 swap, i boosted the hell out of the D that was in my car to see how well it would hold up before it blows. i opened up the wastegate all the way and maxed out my 3 bar which equates to 26-27 psi? i dont remember the conversion off the top of my head. but i was riding around on that for a min until my big toe got happy. i was spinning 5th on a street tune..

    The moral of the story: stock civic holds more boost than some take for granted even though the journals are the size of your pinky

    so you had a stock engine on 27 psi and it lasted that long ? thats pretty damn long i think i will be fine on 10psi then. i might do 8psi riding through town then 10psi for fun. lol even though its that much of a difference.

    me personally tampa mike
    he will do a pull let the car cool for a good 25 min to 30 then do another pull then cool again and etc. and usually after about 4 or 5 pulls its over unlike my other exp the tunner did 12 pulls one after another and didnt let turbo cool just shut straight off.
