High Mileage

stanginit · August 14th, 2007, 11:44 AM

I have a 99 gt with stock motor. It just hit 90k cause it was an everyday driver. I got a great deal on a Paxton Novi 2000 SC and was wondering if 8lbs of boost would be too much on that engine? The car has been driven repectfully and taken care of. Plus most miles are on the high way.

7 psi IMO.

as long as it's a safe tune, you should be fine. you could always get the blower now, then wait till you build motor if you're worried about blowing the motor. i've got 101K on my motor, and i'm actually looking at getting a motor built first, then boost.
