Is this a 420a or 4g63?

420a

I wouldnt run over 8psi with the stock internals. I'd run 6 on a day to day basis myself.

Do you get any signs of boost creep?  If not, 8 psi is good.  Don't go any higher than 10 psi on stock internals!  If you do creep, how high?  Otherwise, 8 psi.
JL's recommendation is a good one too.

w/ a 20g turbo i wouldn't go any higher than 8lbs... thats a good sized turbo to be pushing 10lbs.     a good rule of thumb for the 420as is not to go over 10psi but on a turbo as large as the 20g 8 sounds good.     i'm curious about something though... you said you have what size injectors? 270cc's i don't believe is correct... and if so i don't think that would push 8lbs to be honest lol    once you get a bottom end rebuild you will be good up to about 20lbs of boost before you need head work.

thanks for the advice guys, ill stick with 8 $ this winter i'll beef up the lower end & turn up the boost!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!!

also should i be using a bigger inj. than 270cc???????????


jlh077464 -> RE: how much boost should i run?? (7/30/2007 9:39:21 PM)

absolutly!....I wouldn't think you would be able to run 8lbs of boost with 270cc. What exactly are you running right now?


ck76 -> RE: how much boost should i run?? (7/31/2007 8:45:13 PM)

acording to the kit i got from hahn i am runnung the 270 CC,,, what should i get for my 20g turbo???? and what will be the diffrence??????????
