Default you rock

I'm really glad somebody finally turbo-ed an s2k. How much boost can the stock engine hold? How much boost do you think we could get out of it if we rebuilt the engine? Are you going to incorporate a nitrous system to get low-low end power?
I really hope turbo-ing these cars catches on.

There are TONS of turbo'ed S2Ks. There have been a handfull of 450+ RWHP engines, but they all had built blocks running high boost (I think close to 20 PSI). Most FI setups are achieving 300+ with stock internals with low boost (I think around 7 PSI).

Blow Off Valve....allows air pressure to release when letting off the gas so it doesn't go back into the turbine of the turbo. It's that big, TSSSSSSSHHHHHHHHH sound you heard in fast & furious

ahh, ok I'm not familiar with your abbeviations, by the way, what's the difference between a wastegate and a blow-off valve?
