Yea put a blower on a stock non-PI motor and see how long it lasts lol IMO dont go with a S/C just build your engine up or by a new block and build that. Ive been seeing too many blown cars break down lately, some are been personal friends of mine.

ai shoot i forgot about the block lol.

Yea if you have ANY plans on putting on a S/C I highly advise you to build a new bottom end(new rods, pistons, crank) because I've seen too many stock ones go out. I have a buddy of mine who ran his 02 GT with a Vortech S/C at a conservative 9psi of boost and it took about 15k miles before he broke some pistons.

i have gone about 11k miles on 10psi without any trouble so far.... car is still running stronger and actually faster... sometimes i spike to 14psi too... stock bottom end...


why does the 98 have 10 more hp than 96-97?

Well your lucky then bro lol 14psi is waay too much for the stock bottom end.

racer02GTstang

oh thats cool. i never knew that...

racer02GTstang

yea, tell me about it.. i have a new bottom end on the way though so its all good if it pops.. haha. one time i have hit 16psi... at 6600rpms... not very safe at all... i do not reccommend it.. my throttle got stuck and i had to cut the motor.

wes ley n the G T

Daamn dude 16psi? Haha thats ****in crazy! And how the **** did your throttle stick lmao that must've sucked

racer02GTstang

yea, i keep building more and more boost with rpms... throttle got stuck from the throttle body... when i get the car back out of the shop tomorrow i will have to take it off and sand a part of it... it molded where the throttle hits the body and it gets caught... its hard to explain.... i would have to take a picture.. haha
