i heard from a dude that has ice water cooled side mount intercooled rollcage hatch b16 tranny ls motor 8.8 comp. this guy knows his stuff but was he pulling my chain when he said to me?
"dont get an after market flyweel, dont get type r cams. dont get a F1 clutch." arent fidanza flywheels balanced and ready to put in?
he also said dont get an eagle crank. stay stock. but im gonna do 10lbs of boost then turn it up to 15 or so. hes telling to stay stock this that. how much boost can stock gsr compression handle? sorry to barf this up, but im trying to make decisions here and i get wierd info here and there.

stock crank can handle the boost. 10 psi is pushing in on the stock pistons and rods. You will need one hellava tune to handle that with out kablooy. I think he is ssaying not to get a light flywheel because it has less inertia and you will drop rpms faster which drops boost too. Eagle cranks are fine, just need a little cleaning up here and there.

Seems to me you need to make sure of what your doing and ask more questions in more places.
