25 psi is acceptable for this engine.

Some people got it thru 50 psi, but thats with extreme tunning.

I run 1 psi only.

Sad. Two years of time to think of a troll topic and this is the best we get?

man, cant you guys tell he was dead serious about the question ?

Forget about the **** in the forum, tune it with 25 psi in mind, You'll be extremely happy with the results (about 200HP & 190 TQ increase!)

i'll never understand what people get out of making threads like this, I mean seriously if you are home laughing and telling everyone "hey check out the bogus thread I made on the web" then you have more serious problems then you think.
