Default how much boost on stock internals??(d15b7)

im wanting to do a little turbo setup ive got everything except for turbo and flanges to weld on my tubular manifold. so my question is what boost is "safe" to run on a stock d15b7 without blowing it in a fuc'king week or a month. thanks in advance for the help.

just boosted my d15b7 a few months ago. 13b turbo, hf manifold, 450's, some old saab ic or something, hondata s200...blah blah blah. i just used whatever the turbo was internally gated at. like 8 psi or 8.5 or something, i dont even have a boost gauge so i dont know for sure. i just have the who the hell cares if it blows up mentality...have fun with things

PSI doesnt matter, its the amount of power your putting out.. 10 psi on one turbo is not the same as 10psi from another..

I ran my turbo b7 pretty hard, up to like 12 psi sometimes on a 48/60 T3, that's gotta be pushing 200 hp. Rods never went which is what you would expect, my rings just got tired and I pulled it while it was still running.
