you're both morons... for one SEARCH in the forced induction forums, you're not the first to ask this. and "5-7" psi is a joke for an answer. power capabilities are not dependant upon psi, they are on upon actual horsepower made...

I run on 15psi with a T3/T04E. It made 360hp with the stock block and head. I'm getting close to having it for a year now. I say, if isn't not breaking then the power level is safe.

buk9 i do apologize... i'm at work and my employees are pissin me off lol. i didn't mean to take it out on you. i just get tired of seeing these questions asked over and over and over. but i guess we all had to start somewhere, and you're starting now so thats good u have an interest. but everything aside.. go read all the FAQs in the forced induction forum... it will answer most, if not all of your questions

You may start having problems with your bottom end past the 300hp mark. Saying that it will... no. It all depends on your tune so don't cheap out there. Also your driving style comes into play. I see partial boost multiple times a day. I try to keep full boost down for nice days, highways, or the weekends.

It's a crapshoot. My boosted gsr is my DD. I can't afford to roll the dice like some other people can with a motor that runs for 3.5k.
