Hey,
Just bought a 2g, its a 95 fwd turbo, well the mods are pretty much basic. It has the uicp with a bov, intake, dp, and catback, with a clutch and flywheel. The boost is set on 16psi, the mbc i have wont let me put it down or let it go up. Is 16 psi too much? how much should it be on? i have a t25.

Thanks in advance

Like, 4g63t said as long as your knock is next to none and timing isn't being pull then theres no problem. I would recommend though getting fuel pump or rewiring it at least. Also should invest in a logger.

with your mbc set to its lowest point, it should be on 10 psi. But since you have those mods you can up the boost a bit without any ill effects just make sure your not starting to knock or pulling timing. :notgood: stay boostn :thumb: :thumb:
 
As everyone stated, monitor your knock and timing but I didn't see it in your mod's list. So I would recommend a datalogging tool of some sort as your next mod. You should be fine at 16psi.
