i got a stage 2 star turbo kit and i was wondering if it was alright to keep the boost level at 10 psi with stock internals. i don't really drive it hard all the time. just on occasion when some dumb honda wants some. when i first purchased the kit from DSS, they told me i can run 10psi and no more.

Don't run 10PSI .. I would run 8psi, no more. I don't care who told you 10 is safe, they are wrong. 10psi means you WILL blow your motor.

How much HP does the Star, and Hahn Stage 2's give at 8 PSI, out of curiousity? I want to get one of the two, but don't want to have any major problems by pushing the engine too hard and was wondering what you get at the stock stage 2 PSI.
