Hey how does the stock 3v hold up to boosting


Boosting is something I want to do in 2 or 3 years but.Guys with 05 and up cars,how are they holding up in the long term.This will be my daily driver clocking in over 70 miles a day. Does the stock hold up ok or should I put up the cash for a reinforced block.By the way Im looking for at least 450 RWHP

Your stock block will hold just fine.
