30 psi? Thats crazy on a stock motor. Maybe on a built motor. Depending on location you wouldn't want to run more than 5-8 psi without a intercooler. Do you have an intercooler? You could run more but be carefull. Without the right air/fuel mix it will probally detonate.

7 psi max with stock internals.

a friend of mine turned his boost up to 45psi on his awd talon and blew every valve spring and piston in the engine

I thought the 30psi part was funny as hell. Hell it's a cx motor so it pretty weak so don't expect crazy **** out of it in the first place but why in the hell would any put a cx motor in a crx in the anyway?
