I meant that as a sarcastic answer, for the exact reasons you've listed... boost doesn't matter etc etc

I should have been more clear by saying something like 82psi instead to make it a little easier to pick up on

Haha. Thought that might be the case, but the number was semi realistic so wasn't sure.

On my setup, without changing any parts he listed, I've seen 20psi to 25+psi. Just elevation change, weather, belt condition, air filter cleanliness, etc. Let alone cam specs, head specs, etc etc have HUGE effects on max PSI.
