your obx manifold is going to crack, brace it together and it could be tuned anywhere from 8-12 psi easily with hondata.

I really dont like the manifold you choose, but with the hondata tuned good you can push some high boost levels daily driven. Im pushing 12psi on my b16 daily with no problem.

Get bigger fuel injectors!!!! At least 440cc's and some good tuning.

thanks, thats one of the things i read on this site about the manfold, it wasnt my first choice but for my buget. the hondata had to come first
i will get barckets made before installing it. i also ready that ill need to relocate the wastegate will it now work the way it is?..
as for the injectors i am curently looking for rc 440 but looking for a good price

I run 11psi everyday. Just watch that manifold. I personally do not know of anyone that has changed the wastegate placment on it. I don't believe you can change it. It's in the design of the manifold.
