Purely interested in boost figures. What do you push them to?

Mine was near standard boost and then I got the car and promptly did a 195 conversion and the turbo spat its dummy out

Bro was running his at 15psi for about a year with no problems

My mate ran his R5 GTT at about 21 IIRC, or it may of been 26 anyway cut a long story short actuator pipe popped off and snapped the shaft clean in half. Was all good before that though
