It's terrible, don't do it.

Just kidding. You should just start digging through some posts and view results, setups, etc. Take note of some of the higher mileage engines. You'll be more than impressed, I'm sure.

Your safe till over 300rwhp.Anything over that and you need a real good tune to be safe. But even a 7psi if you got a poor tune you cna blow up. Stock internals go bad around 350rwhp. So until you make more power than 350rwhp then stock engine is fine. IAP is our sponsor and I currently have oen of their kits. Or use the search button or go to the sticky at the top of this forum and look up other's setups and put your own together. Welcome to nico.

Nobody really knows when stock internals fail. Thats because not many people have tried thier limits.
