Turbo Honda, How much boost you running?

Mike at Autowave tuned it. He has a few out there. Off road he does sxs buggies along with performance street cars

 
The j32 blocks are stronger than most j35's so the bores don't move as much when cylinder pressures get high.  That keeps the head gaskets in place.  The rest of it is just managing detonation and not kicking a rod.......

 
Curious on how much boost everyone is running? We know 10 pounds of boost is just about max for a stock bottom end. If you are running more, leave your engine specs and let us know how reliable it has been.

Finished my engine this past summer and have my boost controller set with settings 10, 12 and 14 pounds of boost. I drive at 10 pounds and have a blast. I have only logged roughly 2 hours at the 14 pound setting. I nuked several engines last year so I have been reluctant to turn past 10 pounds. I've got another trip on March 1st weekend I plan on running at 12 or 14 all weekend.

My engine:

forged rods and pistons

chromoly head studs

block guard

1000CC Bosch injectors on E85

billet fuel rails and larger fuel lines

AEM computer

11x18 core intercooler with 10" fan

ball bearing turbo
What turbo are you running?
