just curious how long would be safe to boost on a non-IC 5psi basic setup, because I don't have my EGT gauge yet. 30seconds 1 hour? hehe..

lemme know

thanks,
mike

dont take shortcuts..I would say you need an EGT or A/F gauge (wideband or greddy) to boost. At least I would...its not worth buying a new motor.

Yep, I love my Greddy Peak/Hold EGT......you can set it to warn you with a bright red light at any temperature. I couldn't see boosting without it.
