you say 14psi can be run on a stock engine, but is it safe?? if i ran 14psi on mine, with the specs i have, and if i bought a nice full front mount intercooler would i be ok? or would the time of the engine be limited until it blows?
it depends if u drive it like a cunt and thrash it every time u take it out. service her regurly and get a decent tune up, 14psi should be fine
I used to drive mine like a cu*t when it was in that state of tune ALL THE TIME (used to get people shaking their fists at me) but all it used to break was gearboxes and wear tyres out double quick.
Secret is, get someone like Jamie at Jamsport to set it up for you and it'll
be the best £150 quid you ever spend on it/Under NO CIRCUMSTANCES attempt to turn up the boost yourself because then you can guarantee it will go bang.
