Hey guys, So come to find out that my 16g is shot, out of no where it started to have shaft play and after further investigation i found out that the flapper is stuck. So Im selling my blown turbo to my friend who rebuilds turbos and resell's them, but any ways. I have a spare full rebuilt, never driven on yet 14b turbo. That I will be putting on in replacement with my 16g. I was just wondering how much boost I should be pushing through it safely, to cause no problems.

I have tried to searrch some threads under here and got no good results from any of them so I figured i could get your guys opinion....

Thank!

I see you have no way to tune, If i was you I would keep it around 15 psi, that's just me though.
