I did a search and i have found that if you set it at "8psi" it may allow spikes up to 10-12psi?

Thanks.
Make sure you break in the turbo first before you start boosting.
i didn't break mine in...i think haha

breaking in meaning not to hit boost at all? i think its safe to boost from install, just dont boost crazy like racing or doing high boost.. you got to test your setup so would know some install issues

shouldnt be so scared of blowing especially when you're not in boost.. just drive with caution.
