i have been reading alot of these threads about crank walk and looking over ppl's mods, but what psi are you guys running to cause crank walk?

i suffered crank walk about 2weeks ago but i have 350whp @ 23lbs of boost, so what psi is everyone running?
 
There is no psi that causes crankwalk, or anything you do, or ways to stop it from happening (other that swapping in a 6 bolt). Its an engineering defect, if it is going to crankwalk, there is nothing you can do about it.
 
^^^^well said. though adding more power always puts strain on weak parts. im sure if you had a motor thats going to walk, its gonna happen alot quicker with 500hp than with 200. also, using a heavier clutch(like a 2600) puts more strain on the bearing.
