dont go over 3 psi than...to play it safe. basically you need to be more concerned w/ the stock fuel setup until you hit around 6-7 psi, then worry about the intercooler. to run more than 3-4 psi (which is probably going to be pushing the stock injectors still at that point) you're going to have to upgrade your injectors, possibly your fuel pump as well. running the larger injectors will require an afc hack, SMC hack, or some kind of standalone management system....

Well then trash your idea. If you wanna do it properly (upgrade fuel system, IC, engine management, dyno tuned) 9psi should be good. 12psi + would be nice; not familiar with that block, it may need some reinforcement. But non-VTEC is a plus.

yeah thats what i was thinking but people dont listen when you tell them not to do something....

if you are really set on boosting it...just buy the kit piece by piece and dont cheap out on anything. you'll thank yourself later, even if it takes over a year to get the kit assembled.
