if you know the question has been asked before then why dont you SEARCH for it?? did making the search button red do NOTHING for the noobs?

what fuel management are u running, whats the trim on the turbo? who tuned it? all these questions need to be asnwered before i can answer your question. i bet yer running an fmu and afc setup, which means the car will eventually blow up at 5 psi anyway unless u get better management

just checked your little cardomain page thingy, fmu and afc withh stock injectors huh? i woudl take the turbo OFF before u blow the car up. and if the stock clutch doesnt handle 5 psi what makes u think it can handle 8? GSR motors can handle a plenty of boost if tuned right. now go get the stuff so you can tune it right then up the boost

some of what that guy is true but FMU were developed for cars with no engine management. Before hondata, uberdata, crome, aem ems, ect came out, a lot of hondas were running an FMU setup and making losts of power fine. Just dont run that much boost, 9 psi max and u will be fine. Also change ur spark plugs to some ngk 7's, maybe upgrade ur fuel pump and just maintain everything and u should be good to go.

yes, that was then, this is now. there are much better ways to run a Honda on boost. why encourage someone to stay with the WRONG management?

get rid of the fmu and switch to a chipped ecu

as long as you do the fuel management BEFORE you up the boost, then yes, i stock gsr motor will run on 8 psi FOREVER with the right fuel management
