most people will argue you dont want to boost past 10psi with 9.8:1(I have personally seen some guys running 15 with a good tune...and one nutcase running 18...though I think he blew his engine up later)



heres a nice chart for you, you are looking for the figure closest to 20 for your overall boost PSI...which at 10:1(closest it has to 9.8:1) is roughly 15psi...after that you are in the danger zone...especially with the added abuse of nitrous, I'll be running at about 20psi myself,ho which I should be able to get away with because my engine will be running on E85(ethanol) rather than gas...E85 has a 105 octane rating and cools the intake charge somewhat(which you wont really be able to use unless you run MegaSquirt....not to mention you may not have an E85 station near you...unless you want to distill the stuff yourself)

Take his word for it. I made short order of a stock engine that was otherwise in good condition with the exception of an oil leak from a head gasket. I ran on a bad tune for just alittle bit and it was enough to start tearing things up on stock compression (9.6:1). Drop the compression to 9:1 and set it rich and start tuning.

A kit is always gonna be hella expensive. You can find great used parts and build everything foralot less then that and spend the money elsewhere to keep your engine running safly at higher power outputs then what that kit will give you.
