You could always tune for more boost....that setup should be safe at 20psi - but swap that eclipse turbo for a 16g or 20g.

You can spray whatever you want with the proper system and tune. What kind of goals do you have for the car? Anything 100HP and down would be a pice of cake. If you are running some kind of MBC you may notice some healthy boost creep, but then again.... is that a bad thing lol? I've seen those motors over 400fwhp with a little spray on top of boost, they just eat it up.

You should be fine with good tuning. The stock D16 sleeves should be reliable up to and even past 400whp.

A 75 shot isn't even impressive for a purge kit. It honestly is just a little tickle of nitrous, your engine will handle it just fine and beg for more (assuming you run a good tune).

start low 35 shot then work your way up tunning as need be. As far as how much it will take that is up to you and how well you tune it.
