The 15G Tops out around 13 to 14 psi, any more boost then that, the turbo can't do anything else + i don't think there is a bigger turbo u can bolt on that greddy manifold, the 15g is the bigest for those type of manifold, u should just get a T3 manifold with a T3 Turbo with your greddy kit and sell that one, if u need to upgrade.

well i can deal with 13psi that would make a great daily driver... i was thinking it couldnt handle more then 8psi. so what do i have to do to the kit to get it to work with 13psi?

The Garrett T28's fit onto the 15G mani if you're looking for a larger turbo.

28's Put out around 14 to 15 psi, they are balling bering Turbo, but they are not that much better then 15G's, It's not really a good upgrade, sure it's a bit better, but if your toping out your 15G and T28 isn't a huge step up
It's Like going from a ICE-Man Intake to a AEM Intake. Same **** but like not much better.
Alot of D Series Turbo Kits come with a ball bearing T28 Its very common to see. Thanks for let me know i thought u had to change out everything

i run an 18g on my greddy set up. 437 whp. where your kit will run out of head room is with the fuel. to safely boost 1 bar or so u will probubly need some 450's or larger. and and e-manage, or a hondata of such.
