There is not set number where couplers just start to blow off... it depends on a lot of conditions and will be different for each person. I have blown off couplers on my first 5sfte setup at 6psi a bunch of times so it can happen under 10psi. The easiest way to know for sure when you hit your own limit is when you blow off couplers all the time. If your find yourself out on the side of the road adjusting couplers more and more often you should start looking into welding some of them together. That is how i started making ic piping... I was uping the boost and around 9psi i was blowing off couplers every time i would full throttle it! I was not using t clamps at that time but i just got sick of being under the car on the side of highways! Not Safe... haha.
