9-10 safely with a GOOD CONSERVATIVE tune and some arps

But by the sounds of it the search function should be your best friend.

a **** ton of people run 300+ hp on completely stock motors... some people run 400, 500 and some crazy mother ******* run 600hp on stock block motors... its all about the condition of the engine, and the quality of the tuner.

well the question was vaguly asked.

there are many variables as to how much psi or power a oem internaled block can run.

turbo, turbo kit, ammount of boost, how well its tuned ect.

10psi with one turbo kit can produce a different ammount of power than a better turbo kit you get my drift

7 dyno pulls and 20 passes until the autozone head gasket went out. But it was only 30 bucks and I took a few hours to fix.

all 95teg_ls did was ask a question, no need to be ******** about everything, oh and nonvtecD, if u actually read the FAQ's b4 posting, you would see that it says "do not tell people to search" so before telling people to do their research, do a lil of ur own. and to answer ur question 95teg, i kno a bunch of people runnin 6-14 psi on stock internals

its already got 125xxx miles on it, so i dont think it would be a good idea to boost the stock pistons, but i was just wondering who all was running the forged pistons and who wasnt.
