What kind of turbo inlet pipe is that (the one for the air filter)? Where did you get it?

Thanks

you can go a little higher, no more than about 10psi though.. for the surfer, its really out of its good range at 7psi. but good job, nonetheless.

you'll fall out of boost simply because the turbo will not be spinning enough to continue to pick up quickly after the throttle opens again from shifting, its just a big turbo and that b16 with that turbo at 5psi is almost a waste. but 7psi thats a start, I would keep going. good luck!

how bout on a b16 with forged rods and pistons and stock head runnin the silver surfer? what would be an efficient and safe boost level? 15lbs of boost?
Would a mildly built b16 do good running about 15lbs on the silver surfer? any ideas on power output? and how safe is that with a good tune? with 450 injectors?
the silver surfer is the gt3255 right? and whats the max potential of that turbo?

if you can drive your car you shouldn't be falling out of boost anyway. just keep your foot to the floor and you'll never have to worry abt respool or falling out of rpms
