I ran a 18T at 18psi on a CBV. You can get a IPD HD or Forge if your worried about it.

when you ran 18 psi was you using the standard spring in the cbv or did you have to upgrade it to stop boost leak? i want to put my standard cbv in not sure whether to put a stronger spring in first

IPD red spring.

From IPDs site:
Spring selection...
The stock spring is 8 lbs and good for upto 12 lbs of boost. The included blue spring is 10 lbs and good for up to 17 lbs of boost. The included red spring is 14 lbs and good for up to 25 lbs of boost.



I still have it if you want it. I'll sell it to you for $50 shipped conus
