Default should i get boosted?

im thinking about getting rid of my EF with b16a and going to a EG with a b20 turbo. what kit is the best for the price? Fmax, Drag, or should i go custom?

I plan to take it easy and keep the boost down, how much boost is safe on a stock engine? 6psi?


thanks for the help!

Why don't you fix your car before you worry about boosting it or putting a new block on it. You can't even afford an oil change! How about fixing your vtec and flushing your radiator since you had your head off for like a week. Or maybe you should remount your motor since it's mounted diagonally and is tearing up your half shafts.

1 psi isnt safe if a half *** job is done. And from the last post, sounds like you might blow your motor running .5 psi
