And if you're talking about a stocker you're full of BS. All 26 pounds of it.



No studs needed for stock turbo power levels.


To the OP:
You probably won't need bigger injectors with stock turbo, because it will taper to 19-20 psi by redline anyway. You do need to look at fuel though - better gas, E85 or alky is needed for higher boost.
hey th3_rEv8lution is not BS'ing, I have a Evo IX SE, cat-back, fuel pump, drop-in filter, boost controller & gauge, im also running 26psi and drives perfectly.

Post a log showing your boost with a JDM map sensor because if you are going by your boost gauge, you can guarantee you aren't holding 26psi to redline.

headstuds would be recommended for higher boost applications to reduce your chances of head lift, are they required? no, but is it safe insurance for 95 bucks yea.. i'm running e85 and tuned for 27.9psi you can take your chances if you'd like, I'd rather spend 95 bucks rather than buying a new head.

Thats not true.... After 27-28 psi youre blowing hot air... thats true..

Now what does meth do.... Cools down your intake temps.. so...

I guess me running 34psi stock turbo with just a tbe, intake, mbc, fmic, meth and walbro didnt pay off.

Stock injectors are sufficient for anything the stock turbo can put out.

No you are just one of those suckers. You could have gotten 2 hookers with that money and they will do a better job on your head than the studs.

28psi is a good place to start considering headstuds. We agree.

Because you benefit from selling to him not because he needs it. You are good at selling people things they don't need just like my cam gears you sold to me then set them to 0.

I just did a highway pull and I was wrong. I hold 26psi until about 6000 then tapers to ~24psi. I guess I just never noticed it tapering down. Anyways, to the OP you can definitely run 26psi with great driveability and reliability.

This thread is funny

ok guys look its a fact that stock headstuds will hold the high boost, 26 maybe even 35, BUT the other fact is if you detonate in high load, high boost the stock will give away PERIOD end of story. insurance if your best bet when running very high boost even with the worlds most greatest cooling system meth da da da.
it dont matter you can still detonate.
