Can i boost my motor?
i have a 97 b18c spec r motor running 11.1-1 compression if i did like a copper head gasket, blockguard, and arp head studs ya think i would be ok for running 8 psi on a turbo or even a supercharged setup?

anything is possible. First do your research, and if you decide to boost make sure you go to a GOOD tuner. With a high compression motor, everything is in the tune!

I'd say do a compression and leakdown test first.

hahahaha I know what you mean though.....
To the OP get a GOOD tuner and EMS and you will be fine, but you will want more down the road
