Ahhhh...
That is _not_ a "stock" 3B, which is what I was thinking of earlier.

his is the hardware:
RS2 turbo
S2 exhaust manifold (extrude honed)
ead is extrude honed.
S2 exhaust cam
S2 injectors
S2 MAF
auter rods
djustable fuel pressure regulator
ew distributor with metal gear and correct small tip rotor
orsche 951 intercooler

he 28psi is not a spike. I haven't stayed there long, but I think it
ill hold there.

 Ok. I'll bite. 28 psi? Is that spiking there with pullback or extended bout?
 Better have lots of mods - especially exhaust manifold lest you like burning
 valves. Highest boost I ran in my 200q20v with Hoppen chipped box was 25 psi
 - yeeeha! But that k24 didn't like that so much and the oil seal went not
 too long after...

 I've been told by experts I trust that the 3B will support 18 PSI very well
 and that 20 will take you to the edge of the abyss, but may last if not
 pushed as in a track scenario. I would guess 28 would overstress vital
 internal engine components.
 Others will probably post that they are running "xx" PSI for years with no
 problems, but I _personally_ I wouldn't go over 20.

 Can you safely run 28psi on a 3B?
 
 s anyone doing it and keeping the distributor?
 I'm curious why MTM would make a 3B chipset that will...
