give or take some people breaking the curve and living to tell it
most stock internals run between 5-8psi, and its usually a given that sooner or later your gonna bust a ringland on the cast pistons.
if you can controll your right foot and be happy with 5-8 then fine but just start saving now for the forged internals your gonna replace the busted ones with.
once you put forged in there is effectivlly no upper boost limit (given the rest of the system is equally upgraded)

Some people have run 10 psi on their engines, but all turbos are different and the amount of air each push can be different at the same boost level.

It all comes down to the condition of the engine and the fuel setup you have.

i don't think it's posible to get even close to 250whp on the stock spaghettioh can pistons. i ran 10psi with decent supporting mods for like 7 months before cracking 2 pistons. you could proly acheive decent #s once or twice but not daily or relaiably.

got that megasquirt!

443whp. emoji

Let's not forget this guy:

http://www.dsmtuners.com/forums/420a-turbo-conversion/245278-re-update-420a.html

Can that be achieved reliably? Maybe not, but the 420A's got some potential if you really wanted to push the envelope.

A guy I know just got his car tuned with a safc2 and 450cc injectors on a stock engine and made exactly 250whp on 9psi. Now all he needs is the money for when the engine goes boom.

Interesting.

Very.









Doubtful the guy on dsmtuners is making 400+ on a stock bottom end consistently. No fucking way in hell.

I raise the bullshit flag as high as I possibly can.

I've seen those threads on Tuners. I thought he had a built bottom end on the 440+whp setup. I may be wrong though. I do know that the car in those threads has posted dyno sheets and dyno runs. But i just can't remeber if it was built or not.

Shrrrraaaaaaaaa, tst, shrraaaaaaa, BANG!

That is what is going to happen to your engine.

Forgies are the way to go. $800 for the rotating parts. $100 for arp stuff, $30 for a new head gasket, $150-200 for a decking, boring and washing of the block, $50 for acl/clevite bearings and $5 for a diy mbc.

That's not bad at all.

You want the edge, Brian O'connor? You're going to pay for it one way or another.

Never put the car on the dyno, but I ran 13-16psi on a s16g for 2 years before eventually cracking a ringland on cyl #3.

That was a long time ago...

s16g, FMIC, sfmu and 30lb injectors tuned very rich.

After cracking the rng land, went to a forged bottom end and 8inj setup -- was running 22psi on pump gas with s16g before i decided to upgrade the turbo.

Yes, stock ignition, stock computer. 93 octane. Ran that 22psi on the s16g for 2yrs if not longer. I did eventually have a small coolant leak through the headgasket, but it leaked out the back of the head, not into the cylinder or oil galley. Head was stock as well, save for ARP head studs torqued down to ~92 lbft


Im never easy on the car either.

Yeah sure you can. But its dangerous. Yeah, it might work great for years. Or, it might blow up the first time you push it. Like mentioned above, go crazy... but make sure you can afford to buy forged in the event you shatter a piston.

The only time I ever had the car on a dyno when was when it was still an automatic and running bitch boost. The car made 200whp/200wtq on 8psi through an automatic. Wow, that was so long ago, haha.

Its been a long time since ive been on 2gNT, but old consensus was that the stock motor was capable of holding 300 crank hp, but any type of detonation at that power level would cause damage -- most often cracked ringlands on the piston. Push the stock motor at your own risk. The stock cast pistons are very brittle.

well I guess I'll keep it safe for now.. When I have the money for the internals I'll oush it to the limit to see how much can be squeezed out of the stocker! If I bust a rinf lad or something while boosting, is some boreing or something need to repair it or do i just replace the internals? thanxs in advanced~!

It depends on the condition of the cylinder walls. The cylinders will have to be honed at the very least, but if they're scored deeply you'll have to bore and get oversized pistons (not a big deal). My block was in great condition but I still opted for .020 overbore and bigger pistons.
