Default How much boost?

Just wondering what you guys think how much boost is a safe amount to run on a 95 gsr with je 9:1 compression and shot peened rods. Block was bored and balanced 20 over, also with 2001 itr cams, stock head, cm 9lb flywheel, cm stage 1 clutch with 6 puck disk(no springs). Drag 2 T3/4 turbo on 8-10 psi.
Thanx

Sell your Mugen chip, AFC, fpr. Then buy a hondata (or AEM), any 1:1 fpr, 440-550ccs, eagle rods, no blockguard.

If money does not allow then I would just change the injectors. With the set up you proposed, I wouldnt feel comfortable over 7-8 psi without new injectors

I have a friend that haad a stock bottom end and the same turbo kit and ran 9psi for about a year and never had a problem. I dont understand why I cant at least run that if I have je pistons and lower compression and all. Im confused

you could run 9 psi, but you'd be pushing it with that fuel set up.

with proper fuel set up you could run much more.

Stand-alone, 450 or 550cc injectors, high volume fuel pump, colder plugs.
hondata is probably the cheapest route...
Or you culd get by with the v-afc,450's, and 1:1 fpr...
