depends what do you think is good, and I will look for other responces?

I was going to build my own turbo using the drag manifold with the T3/T4 mapped for 400 horse power. this will be a little ways away, so I am still learning aboutall the good fuel systems.

have any ideas?

it depends alot on the fuel system you have, and the quality of tuning done.

the stock usdm b18c internals supposedly can handle in the area of 10 psi, probably more if tuned well, but detonation comes into play first most of the time...many people dont go much past 8psi on a the stock fuel system.
