good or bad idea?
 
Guys I have a 88 CRX DX with 209K, MPFI swap, I have 180 of compression in all four cylinders, now i was wondering if is good the idea of boosting this engine? Also would it be safe if I boost it without an intercooler?
I dont wanna boost more than 6 psi, my goal is to boost this engine and nothing more, this car is my daily driver, i use it everyday and i put a lot of miles on it.

setup that i own.
14b
hf manifold
managment: ghetodyne

$15 an hour seems really low for the dyno. As crx88Si said, you should use an intercooler even if you are only boosting 5 or 6 psi. Just pick up a side mount, there are a couple for sale here for $50. That way you will have one when you're ready to turn up the boost.

$150 seems kind of high, what do they do for $150/hour?
