Man, you are SO PARANOID!! How many times do I have to reinterate that you can run 10psi with the blue box?? If you're just going to run 5.5psi, why spend the extra money?? I don't get people like you and don't think you should be giving advice to people that want to go fast when you just want to be slow and safe. Fast is dangerous, so if you don't want it, stay at stock boost.

Not $200 more. A LOT MORE. When you think that with both setups you have to get new injectors, so don't worry about that price. V-AFC = $300 and S-AFC = $280.

You might be able to get a Hondata chip for $400-$500, but you have to get it on, have it tuned, buy the extra adapters and such. And why is it more reliable than the hack? I haven't heard of anyone blowing their motor with the hack on a D16 unless they ran crazy boost - BoostedED9 on the TurboD16 Forum ran 16psi with a head gasket on stock internals and blew it running 20psi. I think that speaks for itself.

Well,
I know im paranoid, but i would like to know the amount of boost that i am running. I would be a worried if i was running btween 5-8 psi, 3 psi is a lot on my motor. Looking back on what i have said before, my motor has a compression ratio of 120, 140, 140, 140 very low from what i have read... I need this engine to hold up for a few months til i get a better d16z6. better safe then sorry

I am building up my setup, so when i get all of the parts, zoom zoom, not zoom zoom boom h:

call greddy, and they will tell you themselves that the blue box can be safely run to 8 psi
