on the 5s-fe I would never recommend boosting higher than 8 psi unless you sre intercooled, this kind of pressure really puts a strain on your connecting rods.

the reason I say no more than 8 unless intercooled is because if you have an intercooler to cool the air in your intake the result will be colder denser air, so if you run 11 or 12 psi intercooled, the mass that the air takes up is less.

also, you will need larger fuel injectors for this kind of boost, something like 360cc, couple these injectors with a supra fuel pump or a nice walbro.

but, as far as having a reliable motor, I would run only like 5 pounds of boost.

keep in mind the intercooler, while many kits do not comewith one, its great to have, the cooler the air, the more dense the air is, the more air is cramed into the combustion chamber, the more power you get

so, at like 5 psi you may make about 9 hp for each psi, with an intercooler it might be a little more

Hi!

There are some conflicting statements above. Review on air mass and dense air.

Why no no to high boost?

>>>Greater heat generated when compress, and more strain on the piston and crank and con. rod when compressing the air.

As always, fuel delivery, head design, carbon built up and many other factors can contribute to pinging since the temp. of the intake air is alot higher.

Also remember that the speed of the compressor wheel also contribute to the temp. as it compress the air.

Either way, just an update
