Newbish "how much boost" question
I know this is a newbish question, but i searched and searched, and came up blank.
how much boost is safe to run on a B18C (10.4:1CR) using Uberdata, but with stock injectors and the original EG civic Si fuel pump?
i plan on running 550 RC's and a 255 walbro once i can afford it, but for now i just want to get at least some boost running, and im to poor for the fuel upgrades.
also, since im new to tuning w/ boost, this should give me a good chance to practice while its still at low boost and theres not as high of a risk of ******* something up.

Re: (93turbo16)
yeah, im tuning it myself, sorry i should of made that more clear. Yeah, ill be tunning it myself with uberdata. I have a small amount of experience tunning NA, and was thinking i could use this down time to run a very low amount of boost to get used to using the boost side fuel maps etc... and it should give me a good chance to work out all the kinks in my setup while i wait on the funds to finish everything up.

Re: (StrangerWitCandy)
93turbob16 nailed it right on the head. With stock injectors and stock fuel pump (at stock fuel pressure) I would not even attempt to boost it, even if it is only "low boost". if you wanna practice messing with the fuel setting,s do it now while you are NA and play with just the fuel settings on the vacuum side.
