dont do past 0.9 bar or just run under 1 bar.. highflowed your turbo and boost it up more

[R33GOD]

12psi and a good ebc at a maximum with the ceramic turbo, anymore and KABOOM!!

[eMsta]

any more than 12, and you might have to get a high flow turbo or something....stock is on safe till 12psi, any more - as the others have said - kaplaow!!

[lingeringsoul]

Like what others have said, 12psi is the absolute maximum for a stock gtt turbo if you want it to last. That would also depend on your driving style, if you side step the clutch on a hot day it would most certainly shatter itself.

You could set up your Profec B2 into two boost levels, 12psi on HI for daily driving and 10psi on LO for track days.

so i guess 14 is out of the question!!!!! i might just have to do a hi flow and ecu.

need more power the car is only making 244hp at the wheels i would like 300hp

how do you figure that?

the shock through the drivetrain causes it to shatter does it? lmao

No, because when someone side step the clutch what usually follows is hard abusive driving ie fast gear changes, full revs each gear which means extra load and heat on the engine, turbo, drivetrain & etc. In which case the plastic/ceramic wheeled turbo would usually fail first before anything else.

Never as simply as "the shock through the drivetrain causes it to shatter does it?" if one doesn't have anything intelligent or valuable to say in this section, he should keep himself in The Wasteland together with his smart ass comments. LMAO

spot on the money mate. my turbo blew when i dropped the clutch on 13 psi. was a warmish day.

[cargle]

If a turbo does blow, besides the obvious and needing a new turbo, what other problems does a blown turbo create?

Do parts from the turbo, get spit through the engine ?

[R33GOD]

not in my case. particles went into the tanks on the standard intercooler. im surprised the back exhaust wheel didnt end up in my cat.
