After staring at your post for long enough, then your name, I finally figured out on my own that you own a 1g DSM.

I have no idea, and a DSM guy may happen to come in here and check, but you should have put your car in the title of the thread. :)

If you are wondering PSI, to give a better awnser, somone would need to know the turbo size....or if its stock turbo w/e. otherwise you will more than liekly get a HP # for the limit.. considering psi raelly doesnt mean much, its more about how many CFM and HP you can run in it safe.

That's what will determine the amount of boost you can safely run.
