edit: moving this to the BOOST section since it has to do with turbo and not the coupe chassis :wink:

you can run 450cc easily. i ran that when i was 10psi @ 40psi fuel pressure.

i upgraded to 550cc to run 16psi easily with more room to grow.





be sure to build a z6.. cause 12psi is alot on a stock z6

Even with a great tune its going to be putting more stress on the motor and getting hotter with EGTs.
