Ok guys im looking at putting my boost controller from my old gtst into my gtr..now question is what is a safe psi limit for the gtr with only fmic exhaust. I know the gtst was 14 max limit..but then coil packs went and spark plugs..i dont want to go thru the same thing having to get split fires etc

Ceramic turbos?

Also without being rude, how can ANYONE know the condition of your coils and therefore know when they will have issues?

Stock coils are awesome units but due to age some will fail. Go for gold then replace down the line if they have a drama.

depends on condition, is what Steve was getting at.

Im running 360-380rwkw, stock coils. But mine are in perfect working order.

There is no promises yours will be the same.

As for safe boost - 12-13psi max. Same as a GTS-t really. It's just not worth the risk of killing a motor.

      I know people cry at the price of the Getrag 12-14k for a conversion now, but it really is a nice mid point. Not going to get change from 10k on a gearset installed.  $30k++ for sequential.   I know you run the risk of a damaged used one and parts are hard to get but as a street car gearbox its really hard to beat. If you enjoy a more traditional manual, its the choice no question.
