when/if you build your block, get lower compression pistons. the mini-me setup has like a 10:1 cr i think. get a thick head gasket and that'll lower your compression a little, then you can safely run like 7-8 psi on stock internals. i know of a guy on honda-tech makin 230 whp on stock internals with a mini-me. but build it, and boost the hell out of it
