any other mods you have already done or are going to do? or do you just want to keep it simple and cheaper and slap a turbbo kit on?

what are you looking to spend?

Liberty township Ohio?

Anyway, psi is only relevant to the turbo pushing it. 7 psi on a little turbo and 7 psi on a big one are two completely different ball games. Stock motors in healthy condition are usually good for about 300whp.

^^^^^ soooo true what is the motor setup? 8 pounds on a 14b is not the same on a 72mm turbo. first you need to have a goal in mind then build based on what you are wanting.
