I was just woundering if any one had a good estiment of how much boost you could run on stock internals and still get some miles out of your motor basicaly a daily driver and I want to know what would give me a little more power but not compramise the little bit of reliability I do have
 
Depends on what turbo, and what supporting mods you have. Also depends on how healthy your motor is.
 
Motor has even compression all the way across I have t76 it is an off brand rottomaster it is big I have t4 mnifold and 44 mm wastegate no exhaust yet no bov jus tryn to get a little info is all I also have stock 1 g injecters I want to upgrade don't know to what though and walbro fuel pump I already have if this helps any
 
Dont even bother putting that turbo on until you upgrade your fuel. What will you be tuning with?

Update your profile to a complete list of what's ON the car. Then post a list of what you plan on putting on the car and what your goals are for the car.

Then, we can help correct any problems in your planned setup (and there will be problems).
 
And you might want to get on that grammar and spelling. Making sense and having legible posts is a prerequisite to us helping you
 
alli did on my 1g was put injectors, fuel pump, intake, 2g mani, and ran 14-16lbs safely all day long with the stock 16g

Your 1g didn't come stock with a 16g. If it is a manual, it had a 14b. The autos had a 13g.

If your car was sold to you with a 16g, it was put on by a previous owner.
 
you can run whatever ammount of boost you want if you have supporting mods..i used to run 22 psi daily

i have a friend that with megasquirt fuel pump and injectors ran 35 psi daily but not on a stock 14b turbo

ive got a 14b to max out at about 27 psi + - a psi but its not hitting it till about 5700 rpm and with this small of a frame turbo the air get's very hot so you will loose power..dont run a 14b over 19 psi daily because at 27 they will screech and last about a week
 
There are so many variables here its hard to say. I'm sure there are another 100 threads with this same question. I would say the largest factor is the tune. Once you detonate you destroy. There is a local here that ran 11.90 on a bone stock engine, stock headgasket, stock bolts, with a 16g. You can install the biggest turbo in the world and not go fast if the car isn't tuned properly with supporting mods.
