whow much boost can i run on 92?

[gflo383]

just wondering what a safe amount of boost i can run on pump gas, because the race gas is almost empty and i need to turn it down, to a street level again

as much as you can without incurring timing retard caused by detonation. Depends upon your chip, your combo, and the quality of the 92, etc.

Maybe 14-16#?

Like Steve said, It's all in your combo! No 2 cars are alike! Start at around 15 and go up slowly until you start tickling the knock sensor then back it down a hair.

I can easilly run 18psi with a Testa street chip. I've been up to 20 psi but backed it down for peace of mind! Street tires can't tolerate it anyway

Get alky for daily street use. Don't pass go. Don't collect $200.00.
If you don't see much street use(non daily driver), then either mix/pure race gas or mix xylene for octane boost.
