I'm looking for experienced opinions. I'm currently running 12lbs. on stock internals-well tuned. Can I go to 14lbs. with stock internals? (supercharged)

I would maybe add a methanol injection kit just for safety, but yah 14 would be ok.. I am runnin 12 psi with my greddy turbo kit and would run 14, but the turbo is maxed out at 12 psi... GOOD luck!!!

Nevermind, found it in your mods list.... I would say ur good to go with 14 psi...

sbrodacz - I read your sig this time. Doesn't say anything about a built bottom end so I'm assuming you are stock like the OP. But I highly doubt you are running 26lbs on the stock head gasket. Might like to include that info with your post.

Headchef, the bottom end can handle 14psi no problem but it is pretty close to the limit of tuning. I believe some are running pressure this high with good tuning.

But for a good safety margin a 3mm headgasket is a safe bet.
