How many psi can the stock turbo put out? And how many psi can the stock engine handle b4 you start frying head gaskets and stuff like that? For example, the Eclipses/Talons are about 16psi, my MX-6 turbo was around 14psi. I'm asking cuz I'm wondering what a all stock 1.8t, except a boost controller on max, can do. It's what about 7-10hp per jump in psi?? Please correct me if I'm wrong.
