my friend ran 16lbs of boost w/intercooler on his 96gt Stock non-pi motor and made 448rwhp and never had any issues. Ohh, the car had 126kmi when he put it on. Gotta get it properly tuned. He went to the tuner twice a year and ran it like that for 4 years and put on 50kmi. Yup, 175kmi when he sold it. puffed a lil smoke but ran freakin awesome, chirped the tires shifting into 3rd. he had an auto

If you notice, most of the guys on here who are running boost are still on the stock internals.
There are a few nuts running 14 pounds on stock internals but that probably wont las too long.
I personally wouldnt run more than 10 pounds
Thanks, brother.

10-11 lbs with no issues. By the way, its not the boost that kills these engines its poor tuning, over revving, high hp, and bad driving.

As far as a procharger goes, does anyone know if i can put a b.o.v. on it? I just saw this vid on youtube with a red gt that was procharged and it souded sick. I think i saw the vid on this site a while back. Does anyone know would a 99-04 gt sound the same, and if a b.o.v. would work? I read somewhere that a procharger is made like a turbo but of course its a s/c.

Thanks,
If you keep the blow thru maf setup you can put a bov on it. You just have to put it between the blower and maf.
