I am so tired of hearing about shops that work on 1000hp supras. Do you honestly think that means anything?
On a stock bottom end the weak part is not the rods, its the piston ring lands. At 10 psi on a garrett t3/t4 turbo you will break the ring lands in time. I dont care how much 1000hp dyno tungi you have.
Here is another interesting point. Hahn never used a garrett t3/t4 turbo. Hahn uses mitsu based turbos if you have a true hahn stage 2 kit. running 10Psi on a 16g (which is what comes with a hahn stage 1 or 2 or 3) is much safer than many t3/t4's depending on compressor trim.
