why is this question being asked so much lately?

PM SleeperCivicEX, he has a Turbo '99 EX that runs 14 flat with a Greddy kit and stock internals.

Also, just FYI: I ran the 14.012 with the 15G bolt-on kit and an exhaust. I've done a lot of mods since then, but traction seems to be a large issue now.

back on topic: 6-8psi on stock internals should be fine. Just don't go boost crazy
