If I drive it hard for a couple of minutes the heatsoak is reaaaally bad... Ideally I want it down to 20psi.
32PSI on a TMIC is fine tbh...
If it's smoking on boost, that's FAR more damaging than high boost levels on a TMIC...
The whole No Smoke, No Poke thing is utter bullshit tbh and has been taken far out of it's original meaning, off boost a pile of coal is fine as long as it cleans up once the turbo blows, but if it's smoking on boost, you're seriously damaging things, overheating components, shagging injectors, washing bores...
