I've got the valve covers back from the powdercoater and am ready to continue the Whipple HO install. I am taking the compressor/intercooler unit to a radiator shop to pressure test before dropping it into the intake. Got a question: what psi does the supplied bosch pump crank out?

#1 nicely done on the precaution
#2 idk the exact psi, but it doesn't matter imo.

if you cantest it, with say 25 - 30psi,
your golden.

you can also do a leak down test, with compressed air...

The cap on the intercooler tank says 10psi.
I don't think it gets very high in normal use though.
I pressure tested mine to 5psi first. I had the intercooler defect so it wouldn't even hold 5psi...

Let us know how it goes. I didn't leak test mine. I've not notice any drop in the coolant level so i assume no leak. I marked it with a sharpie.

I know it says 10 psi on the cap so pressure test it to 10psi and if she hold you are fine!
