my stock gauge must under read what it is, because even when it shows that it is near 270 (at 250) the overflow tank isn't going nuts or anything

what i meant by "razors edge" is that would be the point where you could potentially start breaking things on the stock fuel system, and keeping in mind we're talking about my STOCK motor 12 PSI wouldn't be something safe to push on 93 oct. without an intercooler atleast even if you can push the car that much. just 'cause you can stretch something REALLY far doesn't mean you should which all of you probably already know, and AGAIN i mentioned grabbing the hose as a method of getting a GENERAL FUCKING IDEA to how hot the water is going into the motor knowing all well that the water's going to be HOT anyways. but if you have a good working radiator you should be able to grip the radiator hose for atleast 3-6 seconds before releasing your grip due to heat. and i've always been able to do that with my previous motors on my new radiator. but atleast this once READ EVERYTHING i'm trying to point at and not just that i'm trying to test the temperature of the car "redneck style."

Its not even near the limits of the stock fuel.
"The stock fuel system can only support roughly 12-14PSI of boost pressure (using a stock T3) before the air to fuel ratio (AFR) rises to an unsafe level."

exactly, the stock fuel system (without upping the fuel presure) will not support more than 12 psi without causing damage (wether small or big). you MUST upgrade to a FPR, and up the fuel pressure, and mount a front mount intercooler to boost towards 12-14 psi before making more heat than power. *shrugs*

Regardless, the safe maximum is well below that amount of airflow the T3 turbocharger can manage."
