Default Do you think this is safe???

Do you think it is safe to run 10psi of boost on stock internals with a drag kit???

Also, since i wont have the money for a turbo kit till like sommer, should i get intake and headers to hold me over till the turbo, or dont worry bout it????

by the way its goin on a B18B

Do whatever floats your boat man, you really aren't going to notice much by just adding the headers, maybe some extra noise, but I mean I would hold out. I wouldnt' run over 10, and I would only run 10 maybe at the track and the dyno, probably 6-7 daily.

I think it depends a lot on fuel management. With something like a properly tuned hondata you should be safe. I've got a hondata 4b on my b17a and will be putting on an fmax turbo this month. I plan on running somewhere around 10 psi without engine work, although I do plan on building the engine up evantually.

BTW, where in ohio are you? I'm in Mt. Vernon, northeast of columbus.

start saving your money for turbo now imo

What not to do: For my birthday my GF told me she would buy somthing for my car for around $200. I gave her a list, and told her what everything was. She ended up getting me a AEM CAI, now she found out that I won't beable to use it when I get my turbo, so it kinda hurt her feeling I think, and it kinda makes me feel bad. So bad that some days I almost decide to just go NA instead of FI just to keep the intake.

Moral of the story, try only to buy stuff that will be compatable with future mods.
