stock boost levels are around 12.5, i was getting 13/13.5 and my car was stock, except injen intake and gmpp cat back. my boost guage was also correct. now im pushing around 15/16 and id say stock would be around 19? or maybe more? i know some TVS guys who are running around 20psi on stock internals. if it was me and was gonna do tvs, id be building mine up to hold power since i already have 70k on my car.

also depends on how you abuse your car, if you are on the gas all the time, doing hard pulls all the time ect. then i wouldnt give it long till something goes *poof* lol. if you DD it and do a few pulls here and there and are conservitive about it, then id say your good.

depends on your tune and power adder... 20lbs on a M62 is no where near the same powre as 20lbs from a Precision 6262

^indeed, exhaust is the one the easiest/most commonly changed variables that will effect it

Oh ok, thanks guys. Ive gotten up to 18 pounds of boost, and I wanted to know if that was safe or not. Its my DD and I dont get on the gas that much, so I'm okay.
