Default dezod question

Can that 3000 dollar kit be tuned to produce 12 psi safely? what about 14? I was begining a conquest to save up for it but I definately don't want only 5 psi. I plan on upgrading my internals of course but can the actual kit support it? I sent him an email too but I was just wondering if anyone here has it and has some experience with it.

The kit alone? No, you're gonna need some motor guts, some gas, and some electronics.
Mechanically, the kit has the capacity to push the boost, but the car wont survive.

all I wanted to know was whether or not the turbo could handle it. Thanks!

It's not the turbo you need to worry about... but rather the motor itself...

There are people running alot of boost like that... but with a built motor.

You try to run 14 PSI on a stock motor and you will explode something real quick.

, You'll have to upgrade your fuel system whenever you get the kit, but it says this on their website.

On a side note, did anyone see dezods new kit with pistons, rods, and AEM EMS? It looks nice. They say to expect 250+whp at 14.5psi. Put a cam in there and pump it to 16-18psi and I wouldn't be suprised if you could get 300whp out of it.

here's the link: http://dezod.com/pd_dezod_moto...3.cfm

i know you can't run 12-14 boost on a stock motor thats not what I was saying. All I was asking was can the turbo make that kind of power. I am not that stupid to know you don't have to upgrade internals to run even 8 pounds so you people dont think im stupid.
