In a very general sense, turbos and nitrous both add more air and fuel to the engine. And both put a certain amount of stress on the internals that can be measured in psi w/ turbos. So we all seem to agree 8psi is safe for the 5s. But we've seen 12psi, forget who. So what would a 50 or 75 shot translater into as far as strees like psi? Meaning, wouldn't a 75 shot be like running 7psi? (round 9-11 hp per psi, 75 shot equals 75hp) I know my equations are creud, so if anyone can clear up, lemme know.
