- Sat Jun 13, 2009 9:55 pm #122817 depends what turbo you are running if it will make 250 on 7.5psi but 250 is safe i ran 298whp for about 7 months no problem and it all depends on the tune really stock pistons love to crack ringlands

- Sun Jun 14, 2009 9:33 pm #122945 my buddy had b16 on stock internals little t3 turbo and made 214 on 10lbs went up to 15 made 240 and cracked the piston ring lands. i really wouldn't go over 10lbs make sure its a on good tune.

- Sun Jun 14, 2009 10:24 pm #122948 Just finished my little brothers car, on completley stock b16a, VP Q16 race gas, precision 680cc injectors, garrett t3/t4 57 trim stage 3 wheel, drag style cast manifold, AEM boost soliniod (to do boost by gear), GM 3bar map sensor, Tuned on Neptune by Cortney Green, made 413hp on 22psi.

Your HP goal and engine longevity all depend on the tune.

Granted my brothers car was pushed more to the extreme than what most people would try. But his is a strict drag car. We did this so he has something to race while he waits to finish building his new block.

Last year he was on 8psi and made 289hp and ran 12.5's, or he could turn it up to 13psi and make 350ish hp.
