Default How much boost is this setup good for?

Alright..this is the setup I'm thinking of doing on my soon-to-be FI car

Crower Rods
ITR Cams
Portflow valve inner springs and titanium retainer
JE pistons

How much boost am I expecting from this setup safely?!? And what blockguard should I get to go faster?!?

Jeff-

what compression pistons? If the block remains stock I wouldnt boost more than 15psi regularly. Blockgaurds dont neccesarily allow you to "go faster". Infact, for the most part they dont even re-inforce the proper part of the sleeve and inhibit water flow greatly.

aint that the truth - same thing with PMS. With the prices coming so damn low on Hondata (not to mention the ease of use), why wouldn't you go with one?

It's been said here a few times - the motor can take the boost, it's the ECU that cannot.

Of course he would, but he would not need a boost dependant regulator anymore

Well, it turns out I cant get a hondata since I have a PR4(non-obd)
I was wondering how good does the Zdyne Silver(pre-programed) work and if it can be upgraded?

you don't have to rewire the whole car. You do have to change injectors, distributor, and computer. I have a wiring harness conversion which makes the job way more painless.
