Default Is 9500 safe on a B18C with boost

I am running a B18C stock block with golden eagle block guard
ACL bearings
eagle rods
wiseco pistons 9.8:1
crower springs and retainers
toda spec B cams
Holset hx40 turbo with .63 hotside ( flows simular to a T66)

My friends think my rpm is too high and its going to destroy my engine. what do you think

You shouldnt go much past the stock rev limit without some headwork.

I took my BONE STOCK B16 with ITR head to 9500 RPM's for 2 years and no damage what so ever. Not sure if it is different but it was N/A at the Time.

N/A is a different ball game....

that build is good but some sleeves would be better! it all depends if you make power that high. if not no need to go so high just till where you powerband stops

9500rpm is nothing for a gsr cranked engine.

If the engine is built properly 9500 is not a problem GSR crank or not. Only thing is most motors dont make good power in that high of an rpm range anyway, thus not worth revving that high and puttin unneeded stress on moving engine parts

I havent dynoed it as yet but it pulls very hard all the way to 9500 on 12psi. I tune with crome pro

What RPM are the Eagle rods rated to? I forget. I'd maybe just take a quick look into that.

900 hp at 9000 rpm i believe. unless your dyno shows your still making power above 9k i would stop there, only problems ive heard with eagle rods these days involve people reving their engines very high.
