With those rods 15-18 is as high as i would go. 20-22 if you put good rod bolts in

2b will work fine. Do you have any plans on who you are going to get to tune your car?

The only way to truely find out is tune it.

But don't be an idiot and set it to 15psi and forget about it. Always monitor everything with a full set of gauges.

Justin, I would'nt be telling other people how much boost they can run, when you have problems running the correct amount of boost yourself.

Or, you could just raise the boost until you run lean or knock.

well...see thats the problem...im at the air force academy, and there are no shops that i have found here or in Denver...the only idea i have is to get the mechanical engineering geeks that do that formula SAE car every year. we have a dyno here at school and they always use it to tune their track car. i can use our dyno that we have on campus, but i dont exactly know what im doing...im hoping a few of them do. we'll see i guess.

have we figured out the specs on the turbo yet?
