stolen 5.0 Posted January 21, 2004 Report Share Posted January 21, 2004 i've seen many mustangs blow up at 7lbs of boost with a blower some intercooled, some not. blowers require hp to turn it where turbo's don't so i say 7psi should be ok the blower cars had less than 4k on them when they went better to build the motor first, then go boost Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest COOKIE MONSTER Posted January 22, 2004 Report Share Posted January 22, 2004 It depends on how much octane you're willing to run, as soon as detenation starts you'll get to see what your rods look like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
