Ok so i want to buy a complete turbo kit. The kit includes everything i need for the swap. The turbo is a ct26 with a front mount intercooler. Now my question is to you people, how much psi can the 5sfe withstand without detonation? I dont want to push it to the limit, but i want to make sure that i can run the 5sfe safetly at higher psi. The psi i am thinking of is maybe 10-14? if that is to high let me know. Thanks.

I always thought a 5s boosted at 5-7psi with a high quality EMS, ignition upgrades and professional tuning would be fairly dependable (engine wise).
I know I've seen postings of 5sfte going past 80k. Anyone else heard of 5sfte lasting longer? --------------------  |
