Default 12 or more psi of boost on stock engine

so since a nonpi car can only make low 300rwhp on 10psi of boost, can u just up the boost until u get to near 400rwhp or will the engine let go from the higher boost before i gets to 400

i think u know what i am trying to say

deffinately not! for you to up the boost to gain another 100hp would be ALOT more boost! KABOOM! Boost makes heat, heat bad and since it took 10 psi to make 300wrhp on a nonpi motor it would take an unsafe amount to get another 100hp. i would deff do a pi swap way before even considering doing something like that.

You'll have to do at least the PI intake swap to see better numbers with the S/C. A powerpipe (which I'm looking into) would help also. Check with 97stanger, he did this setup.
Do like me, full PI swap and S/C but you'll have to do intercooler or water/meth to runover 6psi boost!

I'm at 7psi with the water/meth injection.
Hope to get to 8psi with the powerpipe!
