yeah it will be fine on like t25 or a t3 somethin like that. but i wouldnt do it on a t66 or something of that nature :P

DSM 450's will be plenty big enough too, if you wanna save some money. its all about the tune and management, just remeber that.

He's right. I do 10lbs on my y8. It's all in the tune, baby.

14b will make for a good around town powerband. no matter what its gonna start to die off over like 6500rpms. even 8 psi would be decent with it. just get some fuel and timing management.

NGK BK7RE I believe. Anyway, one step colder is fine for normal boost application (stock block, 12psi or less).
