right amount of boost?
 

i have a 90 si and i recently picked up a z6 head for free from a friend .. complete, even the harness. And i just bought a tdo4 volvo turbo mounted to a hf manifold for 100bucks. So i am gonna swap my car to vtec and turbo it. I wanna know how much u think my a6 block with 8.5:1 pistons , stock rods could boost with out blowin somthin up .. the motor has 104k on it. i plan to pick up a p28 and run uberdata as well i dont trust an fmu.

Re:right amount of boost?
 

You could blow it up at 5 psi, or run it safely over 20 psi. All depends on the tuning, but you are taking a step in the right direction with Uberdata.

---- you can just run bbka's map and rape the ---- out of your car, i do. My last motor lasted 40k with that map and a stock d16,only reason it took a ---- is because i was using cheap oil.
