Procharging
What numbers should I look at to be safe when I am getting my car tuned with the procharger. the shop tells me I can go past 500 hp quick with the procharger. I want my car to last only 5500 miles. What can the stock internals handle?

RE: Procharging
Any power adder will degrade the life of your block..Stock internals you won't see 500 whp except for a dyno... You might make it home but our cars seem to limited to 450~475 whp on stock internals with a great dynotune/tuner of course

RE: Procharging
OK what would be the most cost effective thing to do, buy a built bottome end, or buy the kit and have someone do the work? My goal is at least 600whp a daily driver, money is not an object so any info would be helpful, and dont say buy a Viper, or anything like that.

Buy built...MMR or livernois to start.. They build them bulletproof...A built 3v (ahem saleen xtreme) will own most on the road with a good tune...

RE: Procharging
Try to stick with 450 max. I blew my mine up with around 480 with 13 lbs of boost. The tune was to aggressive. If you want topush over 475 safely you should build your block. Then you can go towards 600 without worrying.
