mid 20s to 30 from my experience, anything more and you will blow the spark out

.32 is what I've always run and I've never had toooo much of a problem blowing out the spark under boost... I would say .30 for safety..

I've run anything from .028 to .032 with my old LS setup 8-15 psi, I'm running .030 now on the LS/VTEC.
