High but safe PSI to run on ZC
 
Was just wondering what a safe PSI to run daily on a ZC,.. and the highest i could run for alot of power but not blowing it because of stock internals,... thnx

There is too many things to factor in i.e. engine wear, fuel management. Just because someone says you can run 7 psi "safe" doesn't mean it is gonna be "safe" on your engine.

6-8psi seems safe...but then again you could blow your motor with 3psi...its all in the tuning... i know someone that was running like 14psi on a ZC, non-intercooled. not saying its smart but if tuned right it might last a couple weeks ;)

with good fuel management=wlabro 255 fuel pump, vafc or uberdata chipped ecu, and bigger injectors-dsm 450s'-tunned
right. you could run 10psi safely, daily.

it's not as much as how many psi's too run but how much power you're making.......well tuned with turboedit/uberdata I'd run no more than 220-230 whp.
