about 400psi

first off, skunk2 doesnt make an intake manifold for the D17.....you have to get a D16 custom fitted to work.
But I'd say usually after 10psi ur pushing the stock motor....highest I would go would be 10. Some people go to 12. It really depends if you have a nonvtec or vtec motor. The nonvtec can boost a little higher
