Hi i just got my joe p MBC and will like to know how many psi i am allow to put ob the T25 stock? And also please what parts i need, to get the most from my stock turbo?
 
You will not be able to get much more than the stock settings. You may be able to get it to 14-16 psi but that is a stretch.
 
Do a search and you will find alot of neat information...not trying to be a jerk here, but this is a newbie question which has been answered a zillion times. The stock T25 is usually not recommended to go above 15lbs of boost since anything after that is mainly hot air. Does that mean you can not go higher..NO, and actually you might even see a 5HP gain at say 18lbs of boost, but its not worth it as your turbo will most likely die a premature death. The T25 Turbo was made because of its quick spoolup time and low end torque. To get the most out of this turbo, you will need the other BPU's such as 1st Gen BOV. This is a must since the stock 2G BOV leaks after 12lbs of boost..thus losing whatever gains you just received after turning up the boost. IMO, this should be done as one of your first upgrades. Also, make sure you buy a REAL boost gauge, otherwise you won't know how much your boost really is. (I am assuming you have one already). Enjoy your new found boost and if you like me, it won't stop there :>
