Taken from the FAQ;

"Allowing the stock system to run above 11psi is not advisable without modifying the stock ECU, since it isn't programmed to respond to boost above 12psi. As well, the fuel system is limited to 13psi. Once those systems are upgraded, boost level can be controlled by installing an electronic boost controller, a manual boost control valve, or installing a pill with a smaller orifice. BOV settings do not affect working boost level. For smaller increases in boost, the PFC and other tunable ECUs allow adjustment of boost using the stock wastegate components, however at higher boost levels this is not advisable due to limitations of the stock wastegate solenoid and actuator."

On the limited information you are giving, I would say no more than 11 psi.

the FAQ section covers Most of the questions people have ... no need to search.


The radiator has nothing to do w/ how much boost u can run eventhough its aftermarket. Its hot air and not enough fuel that can cause Pinging.


stock intercooler, stock ECU = keep ur boost at 10 psi
