Re:junk *** ls internals
on a T3 .48/.60 i would do 12psi daily
on a T3/T04e .48 i would do 10-11psi daily(maybe more)
FMU=8psi on a LS aka "i spent close to $3000 turboing my car but im a ----- and im going to lose 40whp because i dont know what the ---- im doing"
Get an ECU hack and do some dyno tuning...partial and full throttle...just dont boost a high number with a manifold or WG that is prone to boost spikes...if you are pushing the limit and you often spike you could cause some pretty serious engine damage...

Re:junk *** ls internals
I've got an LS and i blew my rods first time i boosted(on the dyno)i don't blame everything on the internals,but i'll tell u this,don't rev over 7500 and keep plenty of fuel flowing(pretty obvious).i think the only reason i blew my pist. was because my car did not have a rev limiter and the guy pushed it too far(8500 that's when it blew).besides that i think the guy at the shop is bullshiting u,like i said keep rev low and pump enough fuel and u won't have any problems if u run less than 10lbs.good luck

Let me guess.... No VTEC oil pump? you cant rev a stock ls over 7000 if you dont have a vtec oil pump in that bitch. jeff bounced his ls/vtec off the rev limiter all day long (8500 rpms) and he just had a gsr oil pump...

Re:junk *** ls internals
lets see,my friend has run low 13's on his 3rd gen teg. stock internals. 8 pounds. not blown yet. boosted all summer, plus spring.
my other friend, had a d16z6 boosted 20PSI For 3months till it threw 2 rods (wanted to blow the stock motor, had a built z6 waiting).
you will be fine with 8psi on LS internals. the key is TUNING. i personally, would do DSM injectors, AFC, FPR, FP gauge, and wide band tuning (street and dyno).
www.slowmotionmotorsports. all home made turbo kits, including a civic running low 12's, fastest neon in ohio (low 12) del sol running high 12's, and more.
all (but the low civic 12sec) run AFC/DSM injectors, wideband tune. no one has blown a motor.
the 12sec civic has hondata.
