Until then, I agree with everyone else at 40psi.

Tuner?

Seriously. Your motor being able to hold the abuse isn't what you should be concerned with. Efficiency of your turbo kit is.
skunk2 manifold ported out to 70mm, hp goal is i dont care really, gas is 93 oct. wheel size is .62 and then .57 on the axhaust a/r or maybe vise versa hot/cold piping is 2.5 in downpipe is 2.5in 3.50 x 7.90" x 12.88" is the intercooler

tuned at mrd at 10psi with out the skunk2 mana and 70mm tb, at 255hp, 195tq

If AMS's streetable EVO's have been running 62psi, then you have no excuse to go any lower than that figure. I mean you got VTEC yo. One up them and go with 63psi.
