Default What's a good amount of turbo boost for everyday driving?

Hey Just wondering, i have an Accord 94 LX, just wondering how much boost it can handle (keeping in mind tis is an everyday car) might upgrade to an H22A in a few months, how much boost will that handle? (again everyday driving)

if your going to do a swap in a few why get the turbo?

but someone on the board is running 12 or 14psi on a stock block...
like 6-8 psi i think is good enough for everyday..

ur current F22B2 can handle 6-8 for daily, and can take twice that easily on the stock bolck as long as u dont drive like a fucktard (talk to accordfreak)

on the H22....i wouldnt dare run more than 8 on the stock block, do to higher compression + the piston sleeves are not steel

make sure you built the h22 before you wasted it.

forge internal are you best bet.
