for a turbo i think we can only be stock up until 4.4 PSI and like 7PSI for a s/c. im not too sure about the s/c though

i wouldnt go past 9psi with s/c or T u will need some upgrade in fuel system tho..

10psi is as far as other take there car its harder for a single port to hit 450rwhp then a split port at 10psi the 98 and lower make like 260rhwp the 99-04 make 330rwhp i wouldnt boost past 10psi.and even then its kinda pushing it with an old motor. i'd go with 7-8 psi

you'll need bigger fuel injectors and a fuel pump to surpass 4.4psi
