Default how many psi can a drag turbo support?

It's a turbo from a Drag 2 kit for a 92+ prelude. I don't know the specs of it, anyone know? Anyways, I was wondering how much psi can this turbo support before running out of steam

28 my ***.

even if "your friend" did do that, all he was doing was blowing in hot air and heat.

the standard t3/t04e will top out in the high teens to low 20s at the most. its just out of its efficinecy range.

read a compressor map, there is a point where they are no longer efficient and exactly like above blow in hot air - then go mach. think they make jam til 15, check turbonetics out they have the maps.

DRAG 2 kit for the H22 uses a Super V/Stage 3 .63 AR. The turbo can definately run 30+ psi of boost efficiently... just check the compressor map. At 28 psi the compressor is operating at only 1% below it's max. efficiency island of 73%. Even at 32 psi it's still operating at 70% efficiency.

t3/t04b super v....it's a .63a/r and 54 trim is taht the correct trim and a/r for h22 drag 2 kits? Also I was on turbonetic's website looking for the compressor map, but the maps are titled like "t04b s-3" or "to4b v1_v2" which map is the one I'm looking for?

"to4b v1_v2" is the compressor map you want to look at. The 54 trim compressor that you mentioned is from the T04E family and is a completely different wheel.
