stock LNF safe boost pressure

I have a 2010 sstc just bought it it's got a 3 inch turbo back exhaust no cat. And a 2.5 intake with an aftermarket intercooler and it spools to 25 psi at about 3.5k

Have you searched? Most run 22-24 psi on stock turbo. You need hpt to see the full details of your tune. That psi is the least of your worries. Check things like fuel trims, Afr, knock, timing, etc. Those are things that make boost pressure safe.

It's running rich I don't know exactly what the afr is I'm waiting for the weekend to install a wideband I bought an innovate mtxl last week. Im just wondering what a safe boost pressure is for a daily driver. I'm going to have it tuned by a dyno shop soon

You say it's running rich, yet you don't know what your afr's look like? Interesting....

Just my .02 cents, but take back that wideband, as the LNF's come with one and buy an Aeroforce interceptor gauge.
