Re:HOW MUCH BOOST CAN A LS HANDLE

YOUR CAPS LOCK IS STUCK! just thought i would help you out... ::)

Re:HOW MUCH BOOST CAN A LS HANDLE
 

12 psi is still too much on stock internals, i say stick with 8-10 psi

I'm running 12psi on my stock LS :)

i ran 12 psi daily driven on my 115k b18a with an RHB5 (i know it was small) and just a B+M adjustable fuel pressure regulator. it was my daily driver for about 2 months till i crashed it. ren perfect every day and had perfect compression. btw, mine wasnt intercooled! and it was summertime! the LS is strong.
