I have a 95 3sgte that will be going into my car very soon and I was wondering what the max boost pressure is that the engine can run on. I though I saw somewhere that you can run the engine on 15psi comfortably and that is the max boost, but maybe I am wrong. Also is it safe to run the engine on 93 octane or do you have to use 103?

No I'm not speaking RON. Here in the U.S. we use PON which is the average of RON & MON.
Here in the northeast, 93 is the highest available octane, 87 is the lowest. You have to adjust your thinking to a different set of standards. -------------------- |
