Default PSI

Is it true that 8 psi is alot more on a larger turbo than a small one??? How come ppl say 8 psi is safe for stock internals? If 8psi can be different on different turbos?

Yup, if you were to stick a 8 psi spring in a wastegate and run a T3 turbo then compare it to something like a T3/T4 turbo, the T3/T4 will end up making more power. The amount of airflow will be different, but the pressure of that airflow will be the same.

...or something like that.
