I've got most of the basic stuff, i'm running blowthrough maft, 2.5" dp, 2.75" catback, Supra smic, a T28, and a 190 lph fuel pump, how much boost could I run for one run down the 1/4 on c16? Im thinkin 20 should be ok with stock injectors, can anyone vouch?
 
I would run 22 or so, with the C-16.

However, try to get your hands on a logger, if only for a pass or two. Check the timing to see if you're getting knock retard.

thanks, my friend has a logger but he lent it to this kid and my friends engine busted, Now he's having a hard time getting it back from the kid he lent the logger to, maybe someone at the track will have one i can borrow?
 
You shouldn't have any problem with running 22 psi on C-16. You will also need to log while doing this. My friend ran 24 psi on stock injectors, a 14b, and C-16 w/o knock or fuelcut!
 
As much as you feel comfortable running, that way you don't get pissed at others when something blows up.
 
I guess what I am asking is, will my car blow up at 20-22 psi on c16? I doubt it, I am wondering how safe it will be for the engine. (eg., has anyone else done this, what happened, etc.) I'm asking for previous experiences. hell even if you have a 16g please speak up cuz the t28 isnt too far off.
 
You, in theory, should be fine as long as you have the supporting mod's and make sure the knock is okay with around 21-22psi.
