Well, limit is all in aspect. The tC will boost up to 14 or 15lbs before you start having some problems with the plastic intake manifold. But I am sure running a constant 14lbs is going to cause problems. I am not sure if anyone has blown a headgasket or anything yet, to see what goes first, but I would say that you shouldnt run more than 14lbs on stock internals, and only run that once in a blue moon.

Be safe and get a dual stage and run daily at like 8-10lbs, thats including injectors, and E-Manage, and FMIC and the works. But then run 14lbs when you are at the track trying to get your fastest time... Which would include SLICKS!!!! LOL...
