What kit do you plan on purchasing? Seems like you're going for the turbonator from the way you post

Where did you come up with a 20psi number, that is absurdly high. You are not only going to get flamed, you are going to get nuked.

You can't run 20psi on a stock block 370z like you can on the Sti or Evo. Those cars have a low compression 8.5:1 ratio made for boosting. The Z I think is 11:1 ratio. With high compression your are already generating alot of heat and adding an additional 20psi is going to blow the VQ37 to kingdomcome. I think the most boost you can run on the VQ37 from what I've read is around 8psi max on 93 oct. and that's considered high. When I had my Evo I was running 22psi daily driven and 24psi when in race mode all on 93octane.hehe.

Because simple rule in any decent forum on this planet, you have to post proper to be taken seriously. If you post like you're chatting over MSN messenger then your thread will turn into the one it just turned into. And besides, you didn't provide any details at all. You literally just threw the number 20psi like you heard it somewhere and walked out.

Just curious, how did the Mitsu engine hold up under 22psi/24psi? Any smoke coming out of the exhaust that was maybe darker then usual? I wish I had a dime for every Evo and WRX I've seen over the past few years that were burning oil at an alarming rate.

PSI is somewhat irrelevant. You should be asking how much power can these cars handle stock block. Because, my god, 25 psi on a t28 is NOT 25 psi on a gt40.

Two thou-

No.

Different blocks, different applications, yada yada yada...Make a power goal for yourself and build towards that. You want good power and torque?
