The car will go up in a huge fireball the second you turn the key.

40 lbs would be neat to see, I've seen 33 on a rotary engine and it blew up and caught on fire

wow, you people are funny. honda rods arent the weak point in a engine, its the ringlands on the pistons.... at 40 psi you will blow the rings straight out the bottom of the block... then you will have massive blow by and blow all the oil out every seal on the engine, then spin everybering you have. w00t.... at least tape it so if you do throw a rod we can watch

Probably won't even make it to 40psi before it detonates and dies.

I'm not sure what will break first, but I'll bet the hood is second or third. Related question: If you blow up a Subaru motor, do the fenders blow off? No Subaru guys will tell me or even admit to knowing.

Yes, please video tape it!!!
Maybe you'll make some really good money selling the tape afterwards to "America's Funniest Home Video's". Or maybe you'll get a Darwin Award :-).
He he he, couldn't help it...
Good luck to you and wear plenty of kevlar

He thinks he is Kenny Tran... hehe Sleeve the motor with like a 70mm bore, O-ring it, toss some forged pistons in, and leave the stock rods, oh yea forgot run it on a stock ECU... If you can somehow manage to get 40lbs. to spool then i wanna see the videos too

... Peace
