Cool Boost Safe?
I am currently pushing 17 to 18psi with my turbo. Is that safe?

Re: Boost Safe?
I wouldn't go over 16 or 17 psi unless you have a upgraded intercooler. The air coming out of that thing with boost set over that will be hot as hell and really uneffecient.

With what you have listed I would say 15 or 16 psi will be just fine.
