Default 1992 Civic Si D16Z6 - Max Boost

What's the max safe boost I can use on this D16Z6 with stock bottom end, valve train, and head?

I agree.

Daily, I'd say 6-8 with a stock setup and an FMU.

Slug? Elaborate. Kind of a noobie here. It's stock fuel management, but am SERIOUSLY considering upgrading.

Slug = turbocharger

You have to have more than stock fuel management. You need added fuel for the added air.

Hondata is freaking expansive as HELL. Thinking Venom injectors, fuel rail, filter, pump, and computer. Any other parts I am missing?
