Re:how much is 1psi?

If you blow your motor at 1psi your really a smacked ***. I don't understand why everyone's afraid of boost. Boost is like drugs, it takes a shitload to actually kill yourself. 8psi is nothing and you'll be fine as long as your smart about it.

Boost is a lot like drugs in the other sense, it's very, VERY addictive. Once you get a boosted motor you'll never want any N/A ---- again.

ha, tell me about it!! i could never go back to a regular single cam unless that bitch was turboed or going to be turboed!

---- for that matter i dont think i'd be happy with a basic b16/b18 swap either, now i need turbo's in all my cars

you'll be fine with 8 psi the thing you should worry about tunning and management. As long as you have that down your fine.

And boost is addictive. once it kicks in you want more

Also, If I go to the track and run race gas, will that allow me to run at like 10psi safely? Thanks for the info guys.

3 PSI is like the air pressure of sea level. If your not going to boost 6 PSI take it off and sell it. its not worth your time.
