Block Guard with low boost?
We all know the advantages/disadvantages that a block guard can bring to a motor boosting 10+ psi... but are what are the advantages/consquences of running a blockguard with low boost?
The reason I ask is that I have a block guard (came in my motor), but I plan on only running 5-7psi.

If it's not installed right. Some people even attribute the cracking of their sleeves to their block guard. There are mixed opinions.

Re: Block Guard with low boost? (BoostedSi)
In my opinion blockgaurds are great if you cant afford to sleeve. The newer designs have taken care of the cooling issues, and its not that expensive to get it installed the right way (compared to sleeving). No one has EVER shown me conclusive proof that a blockgaurd caused their motor to break. Just remember, even if you do have a sleeved motor, you can still break stuff with shitty tuning.....thats the key
