I would agree with edy my HG popped at 42psi but that was with the stock turbo. If you get it studded and ringed depending on what size and kind of ring you could hold alot more. Im runnin haisely's firerings and they are supposed to be good till 80psi.

ditto, o-rings and studded, should be near 60 here soon. Probably better adjust the wastegate though...
