"8psi" doesnt mean anything, its all relative... we can argue this both ways. no its not safe to boost a NA motor. and yes, with proper tuning it will take a "8psi" raping for a long *** time.

safe for you to run "8psi"? no. safe for me? yes.

It will be safe as long as you get it tuned right.

I'm boosted on stock internals 7psi on a t3/t04E 57 trim turbo, ramhorn mani, 3" DP with hondata s300. I put down 292hp with 200ft.

PS I've been boosted over a year on this tune, and last week did a compresion and leakdown, 210 across the board with 5-6% leakdown test on all cylinders.
