Default 15 psi daily tuned???

does this seem alil unreasonable ive searched and searched and see ppl running 12psi tuned on stock internals it seems to make sense that i could run 15 psi daily tuned with the following mods b18b,ross pistons(8.5),eagle h beam rods, str blockguard,jg head,ferra valves,crower springs & retainers,crower 403 cams,skunk2 cam gears,skunk2 IM,bbk 70mm tb, aem rail & regulator,aem pullies,aem ems,act extreme clutch,act prolite flywheel,mount inserts,msd ing box,cap,coil,holley 525cc injectors and revhard 2 turbo kit.

thanks
Gary

Nice setup, should be able to run 15psi easy. I'd suggest bumping the compression up to atleast 9.0:1 and there is no need for a blockguard. For the money invested in this engine you might as well get it sleeved. also what trim turbo do you plan on running?

i believe the JG's would be better for boost than the Skunk2's

Yea you can run 15 psi on stock internals. My bro did in his teg w/ a drag 3 kit, walbro 255HP intank fuel pump, 440's, aem fuel rail, and some other stuff w/ an AEM ems. He ran like that for 1/2 a year, until he fucked up one of his ringlands on one of his pistons. Everything was tuned correctly, but that was the limit of stock internals.

GL though. I surely wouldnt do it for a daily driven car, but occassionaly I would. It all depends what your goals are.
