67231, How much can I boost?
Posted by Mikey001015, Mar-18-04 02:05 PM
I am going to be adding a turbo here in the next few months and am in the process of building up my bottem end. If I go with JE 8.8:1 pistons, eagle connecting rods, new main and rod bearings, valve springs/retainers. Are there any other internal mods that I am missing? how much would i be able to boost safely on this setup? thanks for your help in advance

15 psi ish depending on how you run your fuel. I'm sure more but then you're getting into bigger turbos. Search around and look at peoples sigs and find the members with high boost levels and read their posts.

With JE and EAgle internals, providing your fuel sysetm, and turbo are capable, quite a damn bit :) You can push 600HP on those internals, but I would be more worried about the integrity of the actual block itself at that power..so to be blunt, it will take just about what you can throw at it..at least for a FWD street car anyway
