I am looking for about 6 psi on my SOHC. It has 160psi of compression varying only 2-3 psi inbetween cylinders, runs great. 160k.

Now my questions---

I will have access to a AEM UEGO wideband o2 sensor that my bro has for his KA24DET with a t3/t4 setup like i want mine. I will only however be able to use it for like a day to make sure my car isn't leaning out and i will have overboost protection to make sure that don't happen. Think it'll be safe as long as i make sure it doesn't lean out when i have the gauge?

All this running on a completely stock motor, with rod bearings&bolts ready if necessary. Think it will last?? Any hints or tip??

If I had your setup, I would definitely use that UEGO any time you could. I would also pick up a TurboXS KnockLite or LinkEMS KnockLink since the SOHC does not have knock detection.

At 6 psi with a couple of degree's of timing retard, you'll be golden. I don't see why it wouldn't run forever.

Cool news. This is what I plan on doing with my SOHC. except around 8-10 PSI I was going to use a MSD BTM to control timing, and just use a SAFC to control the fuel. Im only looking for like 220HP. But with a diffrent turbo
