Default Turbo question

Does anyone here use the TD05/06-18G turbo on a '97 non sh? If so what's the most psi you've run it on, given that everything else can take it. Im looking to buy it but im wondering if im gonna need to upgrade in the future for my goal psi.

Yea that would be very nice . When and if i do it im gonna do it, ill get the engine worked on right before the turbo goes on. Im gonna get it all re-sleeved and everything by AEBS. Doing the T-sleeve, which should take care of of the H22 problems that other people have seen, and i'll be able to run it on high boost .

I've seen 18G based Greddy kits get into the mid-low 300whp range. If you're getting a built block, you could certainly go bigger than the 18G.

i think the max that turbo will spool is 18psi... a safe psi on stock internals matters on your tune... ive seen someone run 11psi on stock internals and work fine for almost a year and ive seen people run 5psi and blow it the next week, its all on the tune
