Default Max Daily driven boost?

How much boost could I run daily with a vafc hack and 450cc injectors and a t3/t4 turbo? The engine all stock though.

Depending on your afc settings...around 10-12psi before you will get a CEL.

I run 11 lbs all day. I also have a hondata setup. I would not recommend using the blue box for anything over 7-8 psi.

And that's on the stock engine? I'll look into hondata and maybe try the hack. How is your gas mileage? Decent?

18psi would generally be WAY too much, assuming you're running stock internals.

8psi should be fine as long as you have half-decent fuel settings.
