I wouldn't say "as much as you want" 100psi might be a little excessive haha.

ERL claims they are good for 42? or is it 43psi? and 900hp.....so basssssically yea you can boost all you want haha. Hopefully 42psi is plenty to satisfy your boost cravings.

You're about 1 in a million honda owners that use 50psi. Not saying that a GE, Benson, ERL, etc. block can't take 50psi, but that's just very rare to see in the first place.

ya, id have to agree here with Phil. the hotrod/turbo4(whatever nopi calls them) are boosting some insane pressures. i know our particular engine only saw this boost by mistake, the 1st time we had it on the dyno, tryin to set up the boost controllers... but these guys are consistantly boosting 40+ psi i belive Tony1 stated that Chuck S. boost was around 60 psi at an event last summer.
