boost level on stock turbo?

What psi do i need to run my boost alert on my Edge A2? factory was 33 and it defueled under half throttle. at 37 it would still defuel without WOT. i turned it to 40 and it hasn't defueled yet...we'll see.

Whats a good, safe psi limit i should set it at?

The max on mine stock was 30PSI. The Triple Dog takes it to 32 or 33PSI sometimes.
Cheers

thanks guys, as it sits, it will hit 39 occasionally but won't touch 40. its set to defuel at 40. i'm leaving it there and am already on the hunt for a bigger turbo. i have a possibility...an htb2. we'll see.
