Anyone with the tools. I hit 26 or 27 with my current set-up when I disconnected the solonoid. My car is still running fine 10k later. However I don't think that EJ20 can take boost as well. You're hopefully fine. Myron hitting 25 with a TD04 is nothing like hitting it with that massive turbo Brandon has. I doubt there is much damage done.

I guess its alright cause you probably let off the throttle early enough...but if you didnt notice it and kept it at full throttle .... kaboom! 27psi might be too much for the stock pistons to handle.
