See the only reason why my motor saw more than 18psi untuned on stock system on a 60-1 ct26 was because of rod-knock. It started knocking so i turned up the boost, funny story actually.

I was on my way to dinner had 2 other supra owners in the car with me, they got the brilliant idea to coax me into destroying my motor. They said "CRANK IT UP!" so i did, over and over until i hit FC @ 20psi. Drove the supra as a DD for 1-2k miles @ 20psi beating the shit out of it around every corner and it still didnt die. I finally gave up and pulled the motor wondering why i was shooting so much smoke, come to find out i blew ring land away on #6 piston.

Go Figure..

The rod knock became so bad it was changing the tone of the exhaust and at low RPM the car sounded like a subaru, shit the whole car shook @ idle and enough smoke out the tailpipe to cover 2 lanes of traffic when you engine braked coming out of boost

.20 over, new pistons, new bearings, refurb'd rods and ill be good to go.

If you are throwing money away, please send me some while you're at it ;)
