For a standard turbo the generally accepted safe maximum is 14psi. As long as you keep your EGT's in check (don't wind the fuel up too far, or better - have it tuned by a professional diesel tuner) it won't harm your engine.

I was only looking at running 13psi and
I was talking to the place we send all our
Injector pumps to from work
And he said turn the fuel up 1/8th
Of a turn and 1/4 would b the max
Just keep a eye on the smoke she blows
Would this be correct has anyone played with
The fuel on there truck.
